I have a Panasonic LUMIX FX9 digital camera that has a leica lens and takes just wonderful photographs. I also have a newly "discovered" Zeiss Standard 19 microscope with all of the phase objectives, the phase condensor, all of the "do-hickies for phase condensor" but #3 for the 100X oil (I believe the technical term is annuluses), the additonal setup for darkfield work, and quite a bit more. My problem is it is a binocular scope and no one makes a camerca adaptor for my microscope and desired camera. So, I reasoned that I could make one and simply stick it on one of the 10X occulars. Not so simple! What's the trick?
P.S. I make bamboo fly rods and am quite handy with tools plus I have a complete machine shop with Prazi and Sherline lathes, a Prazi mill, etc., so if I had some plans or the foggiest idea of what I was doing, I could get into a lot of trouble. No, no, no, I mean, I could make almost anything I might need.
I'm tempted to post a photo of the Zeiss jem, simply to show off, but I don't know how to do that either
