Edit: The SPlan Apochromat 0.40NA has slight damage on the rough portion of the chrome barrel. However, it does not impede function.

Here are some photomicrographs to verify the functionality of imaging with the microscope. All photomicrographs were taken from a NFK 2.5 Eyepiece and Canon Rebel XS Camera using the small JPG format for imaging. This photomicrographic setup is not included for the microscope.

Edit: Upon review of the links, the images are slightly more compressed than when viewed through eyepiece. I assure any potential buyer that each of the objectives fully resolve the details of the diatoms.

Please fill free to PM if you are interested in the microscope. I am more than happy to answer and all inquiries.

Bumping and setting the price down to 1350 CAD including shipping.

Bumping.

Hello! I'm interested in the BH2-BHT, if it's still available! I'm new to the forum after visiting without an account over the past year or so—looking to grab my first personal microscope; unfortunately, I can't send a direct message due to the limited number of posts. Let me know if email, etc., might be a good place for questions! Thanks!

Is this still available?

Yes the Microscope is still available

Bumping this thread. Also, I am including an Amscope DK-Oil200 Darkfield Condenser for high magnification darkfield with this microscope. Please keep in mind that the condenser will only work up to objectives with NA of 1.1 or less and that immersion darkfield may be variable for those higher NA objectives unless an iris is included.
