Photo adapter Microscope Leitz

prusaprinters

<p>The adapters I've made since the original photo port adapter was lost.</p><p>For old Leitz microscope, mine is SM with 170mm system; maybe works also for 160.</p><p>The trinocular head has cylindrical fitting, 38mm diameter.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>One model (the tall one) is made for Afocal photography: &nbsp;an eyepiece Periplan fits in the hole; a camera w lens is then fitted in with the M42 thread of the adapter.</p><p>The adapter makes a 160mm equivalent tube; for use with DIN eyepieces (&amp; 170 objectives!) just use it; for leitz 170mm and its Periplan, you should print also the 10mm extender tube, that keeps the eyepiece 10mm higher. &nbsp;For 160mm objectives, 160-170+12 - ……..</p><p>This adapter is the blue tube part in the photos. You don't need all the rest unless you're me.</p><p>Just mount the camera with objective over the eyepiece with some M42 tubes and adapter.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>The other model (the smaller one) is for direct projection; the image should be about 20.5mm above its end. &nbsp;It is made to wotk with C-mount cameras attached with my C-M42 adapter. Other &nbsp;C-M42 adapters may work too. &nbsp; May need some shims to get all precisely parfocal.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Print:</p><p><strong>Please rotate them upside down! &nbsp;</strong>The print should start from the threaded side down.</p><p>No supports needed, print slowly and fine, to get a nice M42 thread.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p>
