Basic eyepiece base unit.
A circular dovetail joint is provided on the top surface
for eyepiece tube attachment. Attach an eyepiece
tube for visual observation.
If you will not be performing visual observation, you
do not need to attach an eyepiece tube. In this case,
be sure to attach a cover onto the circular dovetail
joint.
Eyepiece base unit with a camera port.
Rotate the optical path selector knob on the right to
distribute the light between the eyepiece tube and
the side port.
The side port is equipped with a C-mount adapter for
attaching microscopy cameras.
Eyepiece base unit for external phase contrast
microscopy.
A turret for phase contrast rings is provided on the
front of the eyepiece base unit. The turret has three
positions (A, B, and C) that can each hold an
external phase contrast phase plate. The focus can
be adjusted independently for each position. The
turret has screws on its sides for centering the phase
contrast rings, and clamp screw on its back for fixing
the adjusted position.
On the left side, a side port with a C-mount adapter
is provided. On the right side, an optical path
selector knob is provided for light distribution
between the eyepiece tube and the side port.
When performing photomicroscopy during external
phase contrast microscopy, use this side port.
