Thanks Michael !

I have tried to remove camera objective and eyepiece :

And ..you are right..it does not work. I can shoot from.the Fuji but i can't get it in focus

Hi

Why shouldn't fit ? This is the eyepiece:

What do you mean primary image of the objective ?

Thx

Thank Michael. I have a brightfield binocular microscope. Leica DMLS. Eyepiece diameter 30 mm

Hi All !

Can you please give me a comment on this purely mechanical adaptor to connect my Fuji camera to the microscope ? It goes directly in the microscope tube.

Thanks !

2) Is it for the correct application? The specs are on the barrel or can be found in a catalogue( hopefully). Specifically, watch out for the cover slip requirement. It will be either a decimal, usually .17 but sometimes .18 a hyphen - or a 0. Decimals are for cover only, the zero for no cover and ...

The achomatic objective will give an image that has colour fringes right next to the structures. A very good object to test this is a stage micrometer. You can get them from China for about 9€. A stained plant section is about the worst object for a test. A diatom slide would be an other useful tes...

Lighting this yellow will probably suppress the differences quite a bit. I have seen similar effects when looking at insects in amber, color correction doesn't matter as much when everything is yellow. Hi, when I have used this Leica with halogen light for the first time, I was pretty disappointed ...

Pumpkin stem #2 looked better to me. Didn't check the others. No idea if that's "right." The most obvious defect comparing an apo to achro objective is color fringing, which as noted above isn't as obvious with a deeply yellow-orange background. Depending on the objective, the additional lenses and...

I could try a Leica Apo 10x 0.30 lens and i could compare vs a Plan lens 10x on my Leica infinity microscope (DMLS) Below the pics: . https://drive.google.com/folderview?id=19GzvWHDP1-1wAkqhZRxh_0eo_aisAjE_ 3 of the above pics have name "..Lens 1" and 3 have name "..Lens 2".. Which ones are made wi...

Thanks 75RR, nice documents. Downloaded, printed, and it will be good readings for the next nights

Hi 75RR, I haven't got have a trinocular head (which I realize only now it could have been a good choice ... paramecium run like Formula 1 !) You are right, I have realized only afterwards that the ISO was pretty high and I will try again with lower ISO. I do not think however that this will make a ...

HI, I did my first "photo shooting session" with my new Leica .. and I have tried to hold my Smartphone and then my Fuji mirrorless Xe2 over the eyepieces and compare what I could get and surpisingly from the smartphone I can get better resolution ! Do I have wrong camera settings ? On the Fuji I ha...

Thanks Hobbyst46, All of them are taken with Halogen light. Let's say that after the first shock, the yellow light doesn't look that bad. I just need to increase a little bit the brightness to make less evident and with the picture i can desaturate a little bit About illumination technique i think t...

Thanks Well, the eyecups are definetly something i need. I am not sure how people can keep the right distance from the eyepieces without them .. External diameter is 33mm. So, one of the below should fit: https://www.amazon.it/copri-oculare-gomma-morbida-microscopio-binocolo/dp/B07VHCMTVJ/ref=mp_s_a...

Well guys, you were right ! Sometimes miracles happen !! 🐌🐌🐌 got it after 15 days )) https://drive.google.com/folderview?id=1tE03AtQm_raZxBebcGCk43dFwSRQYDUC My first 2 questions: 1) why the lamp light is so yellow, compared to my previous chinese Amscope ? 2) i need to keep my eyes 1-2 cm away from...

Thanks... Let's Cross finger ..even if waiting 6 weeks for it will drive me crazy !
Yes, I will still wait 1-2 more weeks. Well..anyway, ebay insurance will (should) cover me and I am ready for a new fishing/hunting ! Maybe this time I will directly look for a trinocular.

Thanks All for the psycological support )) ! I keep refreshing the webpage with the Tracking number waiting to see something different then "The shipment item has left the country of the sender" . The call center told me there is little hope to find it after 10days ... but a miracle can always happe...

Hi Bob,

Let's cross finger .. ! Hopefully it has not been used by the Post Nord cleaning ladies as a step to clean some high shelves

Please allow me to share my frustration ... PostNord DK has lost my Leica DMLS that was shipped from Denmark to Italy 10 days ago. It tooks me 1 month to find the perfect ebay deal.. and it is now lost in the Hyperspace !! :oops: :oops: :oops: :oops: :oops: :o :o :o I think I'll change hobby )))))

I'll second that. These were a bargain at $160 a year or two ago. These objectives are good enough to go out of your way to get a stand for just the 20x. They'll also fit a Leica DMLS and the head corrections in these older Leica scopes are near enough neutral to satisfy most (or at least me). Also...

Thanks MicroBob, reading on https://www.leica-microsystems.com/prod ... e-classes/ I see that for entry level objectives they have FOV starting from 18/20 mm but I understand what you say that I would probably not even notice the difference with my eyes ...

I make the questions and I answer myself :lol: :lol: The objective FOV that Leica states for the objectives is just the maximum Field of view where the Flatness of field is guaranteed... I suppose therefore that if my eyepiece has a FOV of 22 it would make sense to have Plan objective designed to gu...

Now..my theorical question:
I understood that the Field of view depends from the eyepiece field number and from the total magnification.
So the objective should not have any influence on the FoV. So..not sure why Leica indicate the FoV on the objectice

Keep investigating and I found the answer ))
Plan and Hi Plan objectives are used in the "entry level" Leica DM500/750
Plan objectives => FOV 18
Hi Plan objectives => FOV 20

I have found this that explain the difference between Hi Plan and N Plan objectives : https://www.leica-microsystems.com/prod ... e-classes/

but still "C Plan" or simply "Plan" are not explained. Maybe are these older models ?

Thanks. i am interested to see microorganism ..therefore it is definetly not a good deal for me :( In the price range of 100-250$ I have found also these ones: https://www.ebay.it/itm/Leica-Microscope-Objective-Lens-Plan-100x-1-25-Oil-13613243-Fitting-25mm-M25/274245025728?hash=item3fda46ffc0:g:TAwA...

Two things to consider. First, these are meant for reflected, not transmitted, light. So they won't be in focus for slides with a cover slip. Might be OK for smears. Second, while it's handy not to have to oil an objective, I've never gotten as good resolution from a dry 60x and higher objective as...

Thanks David, yes it has a Mini (Type C) HDMI port and that could be a good solution even if an eyepiece camera is someway more pratical and easier to transport.
Toupcam camera seems intersting..but there is an infinite choice

Hi David It definetly makes sense what you say ! As soon as the Leica lands in my house it will be the first test i do with 18mm and 35 mm lens. ! One more question...i plan to share with a group of young students (my son's class :shock: ))) what i see in the microscope and an eyepiece camera could ...
