I am assuming that you are the maker of this item. If you can come up with a design for use wit Zeiss Standard scopes, I think you will have a bigger market.

Those flash adapters as well as other scope add-ons (darkfield filters etc.) are designed and 3D printed by Saul, who occasionally posts on this forum.
Re: Microscope illuminator flash adjustable LED light housing
Thanks for the information. They look impressive, and I'd certainly buy one if he could create it for Zeiss Standard.

Hello Saul, am I correct in believing that you are producing this for Zeiss standard scopes?

Re: Microscope illuminator flash adjustable LED light housing
Hello Saul, this is encouraging. Have you more details about this particular model that you show here? Such as how it links to scope, how the existing light source is integrated, etc. Many thanks Ian

Re: Microscope illuminator flash adjustable LED light housing
Hello all, it was answered already that I am not a producer I was just looking for alternative lightings for my newly aquired BH2 and this looked nearly perfect, just wanted to hear some real life experience from someone who uses it. I think I will buy it anyhow though. Will it if Canon 580 exII or 540 EZ flashes?
Re: Microscope illuminator flash adjustable LED light housing
Sorry haven't posted here in a while. Recently started back up with the microscope and photography again. Came here hoping to get some advice on an objective and post some images but got sidetracked, ended up on this thread.
Been using the flash/LED mod from Saul for the last few months and really like it. Photography-wise trying to photograph fast moving critters is obviously much easier with the flash, plus I'm finding the power of the flash can add a boost to the general brightness if I'm using polarisers, phase contrast or anything else that eats up the light.
I also don't get that annoying banding /flickering in videos any more (I used to suffer it with the halogen light.).
But yeah, I'm happy with it. There is a certain amount of heat from the back, but now it stays at the back and the stage/slide area itself is cooler than it was before.
Anyhow, I've just posted some images taken using the above mod if you want to take a look.
Regards
Jay
