Wanted aplanatic-achromatic 1.4na Condensor top for Leitz universal condenser

#1 Post by einman » Sat Dec 23, 2017 2:49 am

I have a separate turret for my Leitz Diaplan that I have been filling with strictly oil immersion objectives. My most recent acquisition being the 25X/0.75 na fluor immersion objective. With the addition of this objective the turret now has a 25X/0.75 fluor; 40X/1.4 na Fluor; 63x/1.4 na Fluor and a 100X/1.32 na Plan Apo. It has taken me 2 years to slowly purchase these objectives. The only dry objective on the turret is a 10x/0.30 Fluor. I wanted a turret with only oil objectives to eliminate the possibility of ruining my 40X dry planapo objectives etc. The Leitz Diaplan has quick change turrets. I have three turrets one with dry objectives, one with phase-contrast and the oil immersion.

While these objectives offer superb images the fact I only have a 0.90 achromatic condenser means I could potentially squeeze more resolution out of them. I need the aplanatic-achromatic top na 1.4 for my universal condenser.

With that said if anyone has one or happens to come across one for sale please let me know.
