This paper compares the two major types of catadioptric camera, viz. the Maksutov camera and the Schmidt camera, when used for astronomical spectroscopy in instruments dedicated to image tubes, diode arrays and similar types of detectors. The review is limited to the detailed description of systems with which the author has been personally involved, that is, they have either been made at RGO or represent RGO participation in external projects.
