Received a Zeiss standard 14 laboratory binocular scope from Optix704 (826 star) via Ebay. Oculars WF10x-18 mm (no company name) Objectives: Swift C Plan 4/01...
Thanks, Randall. I presume you mounted the sandwiched coverslips on one side or the other of the punched hole, in which case it seems like the coverslips...
Hi Scott, Don is right on the money. This has nothing to do with microscopy. The value of this item is the fact that it has a standard 35mm Leica MDa camera...
I have a stock of coverslips, Immersion Oil, Stains (powder) and other pre-owned Histology, EM and Lab Equipment at a reasonable price. $700 for your Zeiss...
Hi, I have one of these, it is well made and the camera fits onto a rubber mounted part. The ebay photo shows the unit fitted to 39mm (not threaded) photoport...
Sounds like a great buy on a great scope. A lot of different options and setups for that scope so should keep you happy for years to come. Slides, slips and...
That item is / was pretty nice since it is compact, comes with the Leitz photo tube (and perhaps a Periplan red dot photo eyepiece?). It is especially good for...
... Maybe not. Good microscopes aren't very cheap, no matter how old. Microscopy is much older than computing, so old ones can be perfectly capable. Moreover,...
Hi Gerry, Your scope was a very reasonable deal. The biggest problem with eBay is to guess condition form the photos! Your deal is excellent if the F (in...
Well that would be nice, indeed, but the "F" actually stands for something like "flattish"; i.e., not exactly planachromatic but nearly planachromatic. In any...
Good to hear that about the lens. Just to have some basis of comparison I spun down a tube of urine and looked at the familiar sediment under high-dry. The...
Hi Fred, I will as soon as my credit card bill arrives. They sent me a stack of emails, but included no shipping charges. They may have problems in their...
... Thanks for this post Randall - I've been wanting to set up my Ortholux with an LED for some time, I'm not afraid of a soldering iron but really have no...
Hi, To be completely honest with you, the $700 is certainly not cheap for this scope. For that price, a Zeiss 3.2x of 2.5x objective should have been included...
Yes, you can connect directly to the LED from the switching regulator I noted. You will need a multimeter for setting it up the first time (set the max...
Gerry: They STILL do a UA with micro, at least in my neck of the woods. Did you do a dip stick? Is this YOU?... Was this RANDOM or 1st morning? Do you have a...
I suspect this group may have some folks that know about this beast! There does not seem to be another forum for spectrophotometers, or at least one with...
First, thanks for your most helpful post. Inspired by your success, I got brave and twisted hard on mine, and sure enough, it came unscrewed into two pieces,...
Hi Gary, Interesting problem. Do the slits adjust automatically during the auto cal procedure? What exactly do you mean by "it fails"? Randall ... From:...
Hi Rolf, The two non-Zeiss lens were a disappointment, but not unexpected since the seller didn't list the lens. The Zeiss scopes for sale that did list the...
Hi Seth, Interesting to hear they are still using scopes for something besides semen counts and bacti somewhere. Everything seems to be dipstick around here. ...
Hi All Would appreciate some guidance on the following, I've dug around a little but couldn't find a simple answer so am hoping the experts here can help me...
Gerry, Congrats on acquiring the Zeiss binocular scope. When I put my usb camera on the left side of the binocular I have eyepieces on both sides. Usually I...
