Leitz Orthoplan parts

Post by NikonUser »

The following Leitz parts for sale; will ship from Michigan, free shipping to continental USA. They came off an Ortholux and I believe they will fit an Orthoplan.
The glass on each piece is clean, no damage, no dust.
If interested please contact me directly:

(will accept higher offers :D if there is more than one person interested)

Pair of Periplan 10x GFM with adjustable collar; latest version with the long adjustment (? 14mm). Photographed in situ in trinocular head (not included, but available from Canada) . $100.00.

Five-hole objective turret on a 1x 'slider'. $100.00

402a condenser with two phase adjustment keys. The lens centering 'screws' work fine as does the diaphragm control. The rotating phase wheel works fine. I was not able to adjust the phase rings in the condenser, everything looks fine and I suspect they have never been centered except at the factory (? need degreasing). The flip top lens also will not 'flip'; it is in the vertical position (I can't see the need to actually 'flip' it except for very low NA objectives; I doubt that it has ever been 'flipped'; hard grease?).
Bottom line: a very clean and useable phase condenser. $300.00.

Circular rotating stage, absolutely perfect; with the micro-adjustment handle intact, top left silver 'rod' (this handle has been repaired with epoxy, an incredibly delicate handle which is usually missing on these stages) $500.00.

Seems that PMG did not like my images, please contact me directly to see an image of any of the above.
