Just one more question(s) Stefan, then I'll leave you alone
Is the rotational aspect important when stacking small lenses like it is for bigger surfaces like mirrors in a folded light path and what is achieved by rotating optical components on their axis? I read it can add up or cancel errors. Is that all it is and does it make a big difference in your opinion or it doesn't really matter? Is that something you test when you do the final assembly with your mirrors?
