To improve the imaging while simultaneously simplifying the manufacturing of a rigid endoscope (2), an inversion system (1) is used as a relay optical unit for the image transfer from an objective (3) to a proximally arranged camera unit (4) of the endoscope (2). The inversion system has an odd number of a first type A of rod lenses (7) and an even number of a second type B of rod lenses (7), which are each arranged on half of the inversion system (1) with respect to a center plane (9) of the inversion system (1).

A microscope comprising a first turret bearing a plurality of lenses and a second turret bearing a plurality of filtering modules, the first turret and the second turret being borne on the same pivot and mounted to rotate, independently of each other, about this pivot, each lens of the first turret and each filtering module of the second turret being able to be arranged by rotation of the first turret and of the second turret into an active position of use in which a filtering module of the second turret is inserted into the optical path between a lens of the first turret and a detector.

An optical wavelength converter (1) is configured such that an optical wavelength conversion member (9) is bonded to a heat dissipation member (13) having superior heat dissipation property. Thus, heat generated by light incident on the optical wavelength conversion member (9) can be efficiently dissipated. Therefore, even when high-energy light is incident on the optical wavelength converter, temperature quenching is less likely to occur, and thus high fluorescence intensity can be maintained. An intermediate film (21) is disposed between a reflective film (19) and a bonding portion (15). The presence of the intermediate film (21) improves the adhesion between the reflective film (19) and the bonding portion (15), thereby enhancing the heat dissipation from the optical wavelength conversion member (9) to the heat dissipation member (13). Thus, the temperature quenching of the optical wavelength conversion member (9) can be prevented, thereby enhancing fluorescence intensity.
