I have a simple question about a Zeiss phase contrast/DIC condenser. I would like to clean the underside of the 0.63 condenser lens. There are 3 screws that attach this lens to a flange (see arrow in photo below) which holds it above the rotating turret of the condenser. If I remove this lens by loosening these screws, does the lens have to be re-centered when it is replaced and the screws tightened to hold the lens in place? If so, how is the best way to do this?

Thanks,Zeiss condenser question
Re: Zeiss condenser question
Do you mean the 0,32 lens? There are two holes that can be used to unscrew it using a spanner.

Hi Wes,
You are correct on both points and thanks for reminding me about using a spanner wrench.
