David, All methods of scattering the light from a source, whether by the use of prism surfaces in ground glass, or etched surfaces using HF have the same...
... The difference is you can image through a scrambler but not through a conventional diffuser. You get far greater transmission efficiency with less 'stray'...
refer to photo posted 29/nov/05, Jim Suth. shows back arm structure of Microstar-4 scope. Do you know what the function of these 3 "plugs" two upper & one...
I am trying to find a manual for a Leica /Prado Projecting microscope. I seem to have one or some of one so I need to find out how it goes together. So if...
I have just acquired a Leitz stereoscope with the GRUKY body and the #3697 stand. It is a 1959 or '60 manufacture. I am looking for an instuction manual as the...
David, You can only image through a scrambler if it is composed of positive elements, so as to give multiple Fourier planes. In optical processing a scrambler...
... the > Fourier plane. That sounds like a definition rather than a 'buzzword', though I guess it could be both :-) Anyway, I will leave it at that and get...
Hi, I sometimes use imageJ for my studies. I actually follow a MoS in image processing in Paris. In my class of marketing I was asked to do a market analysis...
I'm looking for a text which goes through the classic mathematical derivation of Abbe's law (d= 0.61lambda/[NA(obj) +NA(cond)]/2). I've been combing regular...
I too use ImagJ for some things and being Public domain with an active users group writing plugins it should evolve into very powerful product. The fact that...
Hi, I am a new member of this group, and I have a couple of questions regarding an Ernst Leitz Wetzlar microscope I picked up at a government auction a few...
Hello, I just bought my first microscope and for some reason I am seeing double. The microscope is an ebay special (40x-1600x) binocular type. Fairly descent...
Hi, sometimes it is difficult to diagnose a problem like this without seeing what is going on. However, it sounds like the problem many people have when...
I sounds like your eyes are accomodating. Try to stare into the distance, imagine that there is something way beyond the 'pair' of hairs (on the floor under...
Hi and Congratulations, Learning to use a microscope is not as simple as it may seem. In particular there is a coordination of what the eye sees and how the ...
Hi, The best modern derivation is in 'The Theory of the Microscope', by L.C.Martin, 1964. This is a very thorough treatment of the problems of microscopial...
Dr Möllring's book (German only) published by Zeiss has it all -- in detail. I no longer have this but you may find it in a library somewhere. It would be...
Hi Gary I wrote a brief article about this problem for micscape: www.microscopy-uk.org.uk/mag/artmar03/rsbino.html There are also other articles there about...
Hi Gary & Ray Your eyes can also be trained to pull in greater than normal stereo separations. When my son was having trouble with reading one of the eye ...
Hello All, Thank you very much for all the great advice on my double-vision problem. and they saw it correctly. When I first got up this morning, it was a bit...
Hi Gary, You last sentence " I find if I increase the magnification, it gets better. " seems to show you have a problem with your binocular tube. A double...
Hi, If other people are seeing a fine image, then it's not the scope. You might have an odd interpupillary distance--mine is 58mm, which is somewhat narrow,...
Dr. F.K. Moellring's book "Microscopy from the very beginning" was available in 4 languages. German, French, English and Spanish. I do have the English and...
Hi Don, I am sorry, but I do not exactly agree with this. I have a microscope repair shop and repair microscopes since 1969. Because I am not too young...
... Yes I agree with you and I am glad you sent this correction. Your message came on the group just after mine. Best, Don __________________________________ ...
