Description of this part for the microscope.

Leitz Wetzlar (Leica)
Magnification: 4x
Model: EF4/0.12P 160/- 559212
Color correction: Plan Achromat
Field of view: 18 mm
Numerical aperture: 0.12
Tube length: 160 mm
Focal length: 45 mm
Cover glass: no
Immersion: no
Thread: RMS
Info: EF = Ebenes Feld (plan field)
Info: P = Polarizing (stain-free lens with anti-reflective coating)
Leitz P/N: 559212

This lens provides an excellent, wide image, and because it doesn't require a cover glass, it's often used for super-macro photography and stacking.

Of course, the "P" designation doesn't mean it's designed "solely" for polarizing. It can be used in any microscope for both polarization, brightfield, transmitted light and reflected EPI.

08 160/-
Color correction: Planachromat
Numerical aperture: 0.08
Tube length: 160 mm
Focal length: 45 mm
Cover glass: no
Immersion: no
Thread: RMS

This lens provides an excellent, wide image, and because it doesn't require a cover glass, it's often used for macro photography and stacking.

Important - this lens is not suitable for taking photos using the "direct-projection" technique, as it requires plan-compensation optics.

A microscope objective with such low magnification is used, among others, in the following fields:
- tissue overview examination in pathomorphology
- observation of insects
- observation of minerals
- observation of inclusions in amber
- handwriting analysis
- observation of micromollusks
- and many others

Info: Ph = phase contrast

It can be used with any microscope from any manufacturer, along with a compatible phase contrast condenser. The microscope must be compatible, meaning it supports RMS objectives, TL = 160 mm, FL = 45 mm.

10x
Correction: Achromat
Numerical aperture: 0.24
Tube length: 160 mm
Focal length: 45 mm
Cover glass: no
Immersion: no
Thread: RMS
Info: PI = polarization-interference objective (red ring).

Compatible with the following PZO condensers:
- PZO KPI 2
- slit condenser
PI objectives are among the components of the PZO UPI set (i.e. the so-called DIC).

VERY IMPORTANT: the marking on the objective is "PI" (in lowercase: "pi"), meaning [P]-polarization [I]-interference.
In many descriptions available on the Internet, you can find information that this is a PLAN objective. This is an ERROR caused by misinterpreting the marking as PL.

Note: another INCORRECT piece of information often found online is that these are DIC objectives. This is not true.
DIC according to Pluta (niem: DIC nach Pluta), sold by PZO, achieves the DIC effect (i.e. a 3D relief image) using standard achromatic PZO objectives (and not only those). Objectives marked PI with a red ring are not required for this.

It can be used with any microscope from any manufacturer that supports RMS objectives, TL=160 mm, FL=45 mm.

Wetzlar
Model: 160/0,17 EF 100/1.25 OEL PHACO 3
Magnification: 100x
Correction: semi-plan achromat
Numerical aperture: 1.25
Tube length: 160 mm
Focal length: 45 mm
Cover glass: yes, 0.17 mm
Immersion: yes, oil
Thread: RMS
Specimen protection: yes - spring-loaded
Info: PHACO 3 = phase contrast

Some important information about this objective:
- the designation "EF" means "Extended Field" - this is a semi-plan achromatic objective with an 18 mm field of view, which should be taken into account when selecting suitable eyepieces
- the semi-plan achromatic correction is "almost flat" - it is no longer an achromat, but not yet a plan achromat
- this objective can be used in brightfield, but phase contrast operation requires a compatible phase contrast condenser or a slide (slider) with a phase ring diaphragm
- the designation PHACO 3 means that for phase contrast operation a phase contrast condenser set to ring "3" should be used (the equivalent setting used by Zeiss is called "Ph3")
- this objective can be used with microscopes designed for objectives with a 170 mm tube length, but in such a case the optical path must be extended by 10 mm - most commonly by pulling the eyepieces out of the tubes by 10 mm

This objective can be used with any microscope from any manufacturer together with a compatible phase contrast condenser. Naturally, the microscope must be compatible, i.e. it must support RMS objectives, TL=160 mm and FL=45 mm - or have adapters that make such adaptation possible (for example thread adapters).

not intended for so-called "thick" objectives
Thread in the cap: no, the cap of this objective case does not contain a thread for attaching an RMS objective

This objective case can be used to store so-called "short" objectives (DIN 33 mm), longer objectives (DIN 37 mm), and long objectives (DIN 45 mm), provided they are not the so-called "thick" type.

Various names are used on the secondary market for a microscope objective case, including:
- objective case
- microscope objective case
- objective container
- microscope objective container
- objective storage case
- objective storage container
- objective box
- objective storage box
- protective objective case
- objective lens case
- objective lens container
- dust protection case
- transport case for microscope objectives
- microscope objective holder case
- storage canister for microscope objectives

Each case has the Leitz Wetzlar logo on its cap.

Although this case is of greatest interest to users and collectors of objectives made by the manufacturer Leitz Wetzlar, it can of course be used to store objectives from any manufacturer.

ameters:
Manufacturer: Lomo
Model: PLAN 25x0.50 P
Original designation: ЛОМО ПЛАН 25х0,50 П
Magnification: 25x
Numerical aperture N.A.: 0.50
Tube length: 160 mm
Cover glass: yes, 0.17 mm thickness
Immersion oil: no – this is a dry objective
Focal length: 45 mm
Thread type: RMS
Additional designation: P (Cyrillic: П) indicates that this objective is designed for use with polarized light
Special features: built-in iris diaphragm
Year of manufacture: 1976

This objective has a standard RMS thread and TL=160 mm, which means it can be used with the vast majority of microscopes from virtually any manufacturer, including Olympus, Zeiss, Nikon, PZO, Carl Zeiss Jena, Reichert, Wild and many others.

The built-in iris diaphragm allows, among other things, precise centering of the objective, because in a polarizing microscope the following diaphragms may operate simultaneously:
- field diaphragm in the illuminator
- aperture diaphragm (or two aperture diaphragms) in the condenser
- iris diaphragm in the microscope objective
- iris diaphragm in the eyepiece head
and accurate centering of all of them relative to each other is very important in polarized-light observations.

Objectives marked "P" / "Pol" feature a special construction in which the lenses are mounted and cemented in a way that prevents mechanical stress. They can be used both for conventional brightfield microscopy and for observations in polarized light.

Leica DM LD controller:
Model: Leica DMLD (also written as: DM LD)
Leica catalog number: 301-385.160
Legacy Leitz part number: 541065
Production date: 01/98
Connectors: female DB15, male RS232C, female foot-switch connector, mains power inlet, power switch
Power supply: U100-115/230V 50-60Hz, P max 25W
Form factor: external metal enclosure

"Leica DMLD" is an analogue photomicrography system. A standard 35 mm camera is connected to shutter unit 093-050.001-000 (legacy part number 541045). Among its connectors is a male DB15 connector labelled "control panel or power supply". The shutter operates together with the Leica DMLD control panel P/N 301-385.001 (legacy part number 541044).

The entire system is very similar to the earlier MPS52 system (Leitz Leica MPS 52 / Wild Leitz MPS 52).

Based on the following observations:
- the controller offered here is also designated "Leica DMLD"
- part number 301-385.160 belongs to the same numbering group as control panel 301-385.001 (group 301-385.xxx)
- the legacy number 541065 belongs to the same 5410xx numbering group as the shutter controller and the control panel

I believe — although I do not have access to documentation that could confirm this — that this unit is also part of the Leica DMLD analogue photomicrography system, most likely serving as a power supply and shutter control module with provision for connecting a foot switch.
