PZO DIC objective

Post by Smokedaddy »

Can anyone recommend an 'excellent' APO 20x and/or 40x oil objective for DIC with the PZO that has personal experience with the PZO DIC? Currently I am interested in Diatoms.

Thanks in advance,

How do you setup the PZO DIC with a 60X objective. I have a nice Nikon PlanApo CFN 60x I would love to use.

If it is the 60/1.4 oil it works very nicely with my Zeiss setup so I think it will do with the more regulable PZO Pluta. Just set the condenser prism for the higher NA (100X?) and do the regulations with the DIC head

In general, Nikon CF Plan Apos work well with the PZO. Member Jacek uses them and his pictures speak by themselves
