I am not a Lomo freak. I just happen to have some of their equipment. But there is nothing much wrong with their optics. The Achromats, with the way I have...
Guys, I want to mount my polaroid filters between (cover) glass, so that they won't scratch. I've tried an aqueous mountant (Hydromount, National Diagnostics),...
Don, Impressive images. Which slide: Rene, Carter, KKemp-7, other? I see they are 1280x960 interpolated resolution with the Logitech webcam, and I assume no...
I own a Nikon SKe and a Nikon S. I wanted to mount a 20x Nikon objective which I had acquired onto my SKe. When a quintuple turret (off of a black Nikon) came...
Don A bit off the subject, but... I had heard that Lomo was started in the Soviet Union by former Zeiss employees relocated to Russia after WW2, similar to...
It was the René slide, uncoated segment. I no longer have the KK 7-Form Plate -- Klaus told us it was a reject anyway. The beauty of the Quickcam software is...
Not only that, but I was also told a lot of equipment was moved to Leningrad after the war as well. I suppose this would have included the designs and optical...
It's interesting to see what different reactions the same item gets from different people. I compared the Jackson book to the Muir book because of external...
I was just about to put take the slide off the stage after having my afternoon cup of tea when I thought I'd just take out the objective that makes me nervous...
Hi Don I am really pleased that you are talking about Lomo. Many people don't know about the products they make. I wrote a seller on Ebay about a part that...
The description by Dan about an eBay seller not knowing (or caring) what a Lomo is prompts me to comment about eBay microscope sellers. I often buy parts on...
I've bought a lot of microscope stuff in the last 18 months on eBay, and I've had experiences similar to Greg's. I buy from knowledgeable, microscope people...
Steve, The way I heard the story and I am sure its not all right is in the final days of WWII after the lines that split Germany and the rest of Europe had had...
This depends on the language. Today, if I just stared with microscopy, I would just download the "Mikrofibel" written by Klaus Henkel (Germany). The book is...
... I can answer that. People (like me, or others I know) who had bad experiences with Soviet-era LOMO equipment still carry that perception. Of course I've...
After a few days reading some messages here, I get the impression that a used microscope, in good condition, is actually a much better deal than spending $$$...

Get a reconditioned AO I'm a Nikon person because of my bias from my days in graduate school and university research. There I used, and learned to love Nikons....

Thanks Sandy That is a good piece of info What phase equipment do you recommend for an SKe or an LKe? It was recommended to me to get DLL objectives, since...
