The Ploemopak is designed to work with standard transient light objectives made for finite tube length 170 or 160 mm. Infinity objectives will not work.InfiniteCosmos wrote: ↑Sat Jan 28, 2023 9:57 pm
This ploemopak works fine with infinity objectives?
Because they seems to be way cheaper and abundant.
To make it worse: In reflected light fluorescence work the objective is the condenser as well. To achieve good fluorescence you need objectives as powerful as possible. A high NA is crucial. 10/0.45, 20/0.75 and 1.3/40 are typical objectives used for this application. Your powerful lightning will help of course.
Very much! It is quite dangerous to use a HBO 250 in transient light. A Ploemopak is a much safer configuration.Leitzcycler wrote: ↑Sat Jan 28, 2023 8:07 pmBe careful with the mercury lamp as I think it may be even more dangerous if used with transient light.
