Abstract

For image recording purposes, an object is illuminated at a plurality of illumination angles. A detector captures a plurality of images (41-43) of the object for the plurality of illumination angles. An electronic evaluating device applies an image correction to at least some of the plurality of images (41-43), said image correction comprising a displacement (T1, T2), wherein the displacement (T1, T2) depends on the illumination angle (4) used when recording the respective image (41-43). The corrected images (44-46) may be combined.
