Summary:The invention relates a lithograph for producing computer-generated holograms in a storage medium ( 13 ), provided with a source for generating a write beam ( 2 ), a moving lens ( 4 ) for focussing the write beam ( 2 ), means for displacing the moving lens ( 4 ) along a direction of movement ( 6 ), and with a means for displacing the write beam ( 2 ) in relation to the storage medium ( 13 ) in a manner that is perpendicular to the direction of movement ( 6 ). The aim of the invention is to provide a lithograph in which disruptions in the movement of a lens perpendicular to the direction of movement thereof do not effect this end, the moving lens ( 4 ) has refractive power only essentially in a first direction that is parallel to the direction of movement ( 6 ). In addition, a stationary lens ( 9 ) is provided, and this stationary lens ( 9 ) has refractive power only essentially in a second direction ( 5 ), whereby the second direction ( 5 ) is perpendicular to the first direction and to the write beam ( 2 ).
