WTB Olympus LWD 20X

#1 Post by arb566 » Sat May 29, 2021 3:41 am

Looking for an Olympus LWD CDplan 20X. Need the standard brightfield version, not the phase contrast and not the ULWD.
Let me know if you have one tucked away that you would be willing to sell.

Thanks, Al.

Hi Al-we meet again!-I’ve got one in near mint condition (all bright field)-I’ve also got the CD A 20x version which doesn’t require correction collar (corrected for slide/Petri 1.2mm plus/minus 0.5mm) -The Correction collar versions can be used for DIC-I haven’t noticed much difference with the collar vs non collar version-also have the 40x CDPlan correction colllar N/A .6 (there is a .55 version as well) are you looking to repimp your IMT some more? If so I’ve got some extra LB era eyepieces corrected for this era objective-I’ve got a CK-2 but hunted down the ULWD versions-not super sharp but impressive depth of focus-which I prefer in inverted objectives-did you try any fluorites or unusual objectives with the phase stick? Could you get alternative magnifications in phase (like 6.3x,16x,25x)? I’m still pimping my Leitz Labovert-hard to know when to stop..
PM me to chat if interested
Regards ross
