My Scope

#1 Post by Richard » Tue Sep 15, 2015 1:26 am

Zeiss Axiovert 35 with 10x, 20x, 32x PH1 and 40x PH2 Zeiss objectives and a 100x oil immersion (rarely use it). I use a Sony a7 Mark ii and Sony FS700 for videos and stills.

I will disagree. I can hardly see your microscope since it just a head on shot. We need a side view to appreciate its full capabilities. :-)

We need something like this:

Those images are very nostalgic to me. I used basically the same microscope for many years at work. I miss it :) .

Beautiful stand, Richard! How does your oil-immersion objective get 'oiled'...on this inverted stand? What sort of materials is an inverted oil-immersion objective used with?

I see the stage controls are quite a reach from where the microscopist would be sitting, what sort of microscopy does this stand enjoy? quite a setup. Charlie guevara
