Re: Half-mirror
I'm assuming that's a resin printed dovetailed cube. I don't know where it goes, but could you fit a 20mm 50/50 non-polarizing beam splitter cube in there? Then you could get one of these to experiment with for $22: https://www.ebay.com/itm/Cube-Beam-Splitter-Prism-Ratio-Optical-Glass-50-50-Spectro...

Half-mirror
Looking for the half-mirror (not dichroic) for the Nikon BF/DF DIY cube.
Proof of the concept was made with the SurplusShed dichroic mirror (at the left),working model is at the right, used half-mirror leftover piece.

Re: Dimmable LED/flash microscope illuminator
One more model (in parallel to the existing one) - more powerful, swap-able heatsink (let's say you want UV version also), can be used for non flash version, etc. Even more, the same heatsink can be used for both LEDs - reversed to the another side. http://www.photomacrography.net/forum/userpix/1489...

Re: Setting-up TL on the microscope
When you say 200mm and 125mm tube lenses, are these achromatic doublets? Or something fancier? 200mm is Reichert Microstar IV head TL (no idea what is inside), 125mm - achromatic doublet. I have a Thorlabs achromatic doublet? Did you ever try that as a tube lens (based on a 2011 posting you had lin...

Testing a new illumination technique with my favorite AO 1.25 Abbe condenser, converted for Nikon.
