Re: Photo-port eyepiece/optics comparisons for FOV size
I have tried all sorts of permutations for photomicrography and the simplest easiest is a c-mount system with appropriate reduction relay lens. Currently I use leica DFC firewire cameras and Leitz x5 or x6.3 reducers, coupled to Leica LAS software and mounted on my orthoplans (yes, I have more than ...

Leitz/Wild vario orthomat 2 zoom lens and adapters
I have for sale a Wild/Leitz vario-orthomat 2 zoom photo relay lens and the 0.32 reduction lens, and carrier cage etc. This is an iso 38 tube fitting for Wild,Leitz and Leica (and Nikon) and any T2 adapter can be used to mount a suitable dslr camera. The zoom range is from 5 to 12, and with the rela...

Re: Connecting Canon DSLR to Leitz trinocular head with all-Leitz components
Again, a late response. You can also use a standard periplan gw eyepiece at both x6.3 and x10. They are both 30mm tubes and so a straight fit. Using a x6.3 gives a tube factor of x2, so is more suitable for APC cameras. A better solution is to adapt a vario orthomat 11 lens and this can cover full f...

Re: Coincidentally parfocal.
Hi,
Every objective has a means of adjusting lying underneath the sleeve, there will be a small locking nut that you can adjust to parfocality.
Another method is the use of shims to lower the objective in the turret.(they are available in 001" and upwards.
Its a matter of trial and error.

Re: Connecting Canon DSLR to Leitz trinocular head with all-Leitz components
Coming in on the tail-end of the vario orthomat setup. I assume that the "vario" is essentially an afocal unit that requires the stepdown 0.32 lens to focus onto the camera plate. That being the case, the length of "tube" between the vario and step down is not really a specific value. However, this ...
