Hello all, I want to show my first photomicrographic picture in this community: http://www.photomacrography.net/forum/userpix/741_Meduse_3D_1.jpg A medusa of Obelia geniculata, a marine living cnidarian, only about one millimeter size. I found this medusa on a microscopical slide made by Schlüter & ...

Another question:I received the Axionmat with the twin lamp module you can see behind the microscope. One lamp is operated by the 12v outlet of the Axiomat controller. All fine here. The other one, is connected to the Siemens power supply with the plug you can see in the picture. This power supply ...

Hello Ceresio, thank you for sharing the pictures of your Axiomat. It is absolutely impressive, not only how you set it up, but I am also sure that you own every single option/accessory ever built for the Axiomat! Fantastic. Thank you for your compliments. During my time of pathological :wink: enthu...

Hello Ceresio, I do not know what kind of adaptor your pictures show but it is surely not an original ZEISS made adaptor. I think it is "home built" by a precision mechanical workshop possibly using ZEISS mechanical and optical components. I´ll show you some different mounts of cameras I realized on...

Dear Klaus, Ortholux II and Metallux II are both the same microscope stands. In opposite to the Metallux I, which does not include the whole translucent optical path of the Ortholux I, the only difference between Ortholux II and Metallux II is the name plate. Typically a Metallux ist not provided fo...

Hello Davids, I own this lens and believe me - it is a marvelous lens in the range between infinity and 1:2 (1:1 with its attached ELPRO) but it is not the best choice for extreme macro because its excellent image quality drops down if you try to enlarge the distance between camerabody and objective...

Best pics of Daphnia I have ever seen.

Yes, indeed, the ZEISS PlanApo 40/1.0 Oil has an internal iris, same as the phase contrast version PlanApo 40/1.0 Oil PH3.

I've been searching for many years, and one finally surfaced. Maybe the only one exi...

Hi, the old ZEISS Apo 40/1,0 Oil CZO (Carl Zeiss Oberkochen) gives excellent result in combination with the older DIC with general main Prism above of the nosepiece and I know that there is a pretty good combination possible with one of the individual sliders of the new (last manufactured) DIC too. ...

You thought quite well!

Googling for Stemi IVb as suggested by wpo : http://www.mikroskopie-forum.de/index.php?topic=10401.0, that seems the same with older style paint. There is also a link to the original german booklet. quote] Hi Pau, that is not the same microscope in an old style paint. Here is a Stemi II shown, whic...

Hi Eddie,

the correct name is Zeiss Stemi IVb (stereo microscope 4b)
