1828 G. Dakin in Philos. Mag. 2nd Ser. 4 431 I strongly suspect that the focal distances of lenses are generally underrated by opticians. To prove mine, I made what may be called a Focimeter.

1851 R. Hunt Photography xv. 215 Mr. Claudet has also devised a very ingenious instrument for focusing, which he calls his Focimeter.

1891 Proc. Royal Soc. 1890–91 49 227 These principles are embodied in an instrument described in the paper, and called a focometer.

1935 Camera June 410/1 As we all know, chemical and visual focus are not the same thing. In order to test this quality of a lens, an instrument called a ‘focimeter’ is used.

1969 Jrnl. Brit. Astron. Assoc. 79 341 Mr Dall said that many commercial eyepieces had their focal lengths wrongly given; he used a focometer, but this was a complex device.

2007 European Lenses & Technol. Oct. 36 A tint tank, hand edger, focimeter, frame heater and all the commonly used tooling and consumables, are included in the..price.
