Align optical axes to rail axes

Hi,
If the optical axe is not perfectly parallel to the rail axe, the images in the stack will slightly shift.

Re: Mitutoyo M Plan APO HR 5X 0.21 Test Results

Another awesome test making me dream of a lens I probably will never own! Thank you Robert.

This would be a potent competitor for the mag X 5x. Is there a reason you did not include it in the comparison?

Re: Stackshot controller: How to move to endpoint

Here is the answer by Paul from Cognisys:
Pressing CONFIG+UP buttons takes a shot at the first and last shot of a stack.

It can be found in the release notes of a firmware update:

Stackshot controller: How to move to endpoint

Hi folks, I really like the possibility to move to the defined endpoint and to the start point again which is possible with the zerene stackshot panel. But, I always prefere to touch hardware buttons rather to turn virtual knobs on my laptop. I think there is a special button combination on stacksho...

Ciao Antonio, Basically you will set your tube lens focus at infinity. Therefor you focus with your tube lens (without any microscope lens! just the Raynox) on a very distant object. Your raynox is now set at little more than 200mm. This will give you a little more than 20x mag with the olympus. In ...
