“Mitutoyo light angle per objective” is striking. Thank you, Chris . I used 3D models from Edmund Optics for new generation "3" and modified them using Mitutoyo catalog to match older generation "2".

Look, someone already disassembled his 100X 0.70 378-806-2 and decided to sell it after all. Strange isn't it? He not jus...
