Thank you for that! It is just what I was searching for. There was an earlier listing for one of these but the description said that the fine focus made a grinding noise, so I passed on it. This one on the other hand sounds good. _________________ Lou Jost

I don't know if you've seen one Lou, but keep a look out for the base which goes on those dovetails.
You usually get 50mm of micrometer x-y, and a rotating glass middle.
Only another 20kg or so.
There were simpler ones too.
If you see the one with fat encoders, they're 200mm/pi diameter; I'm sure you can work out what to do with that .
They have complex electronics inside, they aren't simple quadrature encoders, to my eyes. I didn't get the counter part, but I doubt I'd use it.
I know nothing about the base illumination system, I've not come across a manual for the UM-2. _________________ Chris R |

Those look nice! But I wonder, since they are for stereo microscopes, the fine focus might not be fine enough for focus stacking with high-magnification objectives? _________________ Lou Jost
