Description of this part for the microscope.

It is not easy to find a used objective in this condition.

Manufacturer: Lomo
Magnification: 40x
Model: D=0 40 0.65
Numerical aperture: 0.65
Tube length: 160 mm
Focal length: 33 mm
Cover slip: no
Thread: RMS + adapter to M27 thread
Marking: "D=0" = work without cover slip

This is an objective for working with reflected light (but also transmitted light) without a cover slip.

Objective with RMS thread, but can be screwed into an adapter for M27 thread, allowing use in a microscope, e.g., Biolam-M. Of course, the objective can be unscrewed and another objective can be screwed into the adapter.

Info: M27 thread is also a standard used by Zeiss Axio microscopes. Therefore:
- this objective can be used in Axio microscopes with M27 thread
- this adapter can be used in Axio microscopes with another objective

This adapter is not a 3D-printed plastic part - it is a professional, metal, original product by Lomo.

Description of this part for the microscope.

This insert fits condensers used in the following Lomo microscopes:
- Polam (all models)
- MIN-8
- MIK-1
- MIK-4

and most likely also in other microscopes that use similarly designed condensers. Note - to make sure that this insert fits your condenser, be sure to check the diameter of this element.

Mount diameter: 35 mm

The transmitted light condenser in these microscopes features:
- interchangeable upper lenses to obtain the required aperture
- a diaphragm located below the upper lens
- a slot for inserting a Pol filter insert (the insert may, but does not have to, include an additional iris diaphragm)

In some cases, this insert alone can be used without the condenser - the effect is similar to a condenser with a Pol filter of low N.A.
This element is often used by owners of microscopes from other manufacturers to convert their condenser into a polarisation condenser.

Since this element can be removed relatively easily, it is very often missing in microscopes from the secondary market.

IMPORTANT - this is not a separate microscope condenser. It is a component of the condenser, even though it is sometimes used as a substitute for a condenser.

This element is often used by owners of microscopes from other manufacturers to convert their condenser into a infrared condenser.

special diaphragms was supplied. The set included phase contrast diaphragms and dark field diaphragms.

Note - I am showing and offering here one single diaphragm in holder - exactly the one visible in the photos. This is a phase contrast diaphragm (phase annulus). The complete set for the Lomo Polam microscope contains 5 diaphragms.

Important note:
Such diaphragms in a special holder, supplied as a set of five diaphragms, were an accessory for the Lomo Polam polarizing microscope. These diaphragms are mounted onto the polarizing microscope condenser in order to combine these observation techniques and obtain a phase image in polarized light. Please note that the same condensers can also be used in Lomo MIN series polarizing microscopes (for example Lomo MIN-6 or Lomo MIN-8 models) and in Lomo MIK series infrared microscopes (for example Lomo MIK-4). This means that there is nothing preventing the use of these phase annuli in those microscopes as well.

The newest version of the Lomo Polam microscope, namely the Lomo Polam LMPR model, no longer requires this accessory. The Lomo Polam LMPR already has a special polarizing phase contrast disc condenser (somewhat similar to the Lomo KF-4 condenser).

In the last photo in the gallery you can see a page from the Lomo Polam microscope manual where this element is shown. In the manual it is shown in figure number 6, element number 65.

with the Lomo Polam polarizing microscope. The set included phase contrast diaphragms and dark field diaphragms. Here I present and offer a complete set.

Important note:
Such diaphragms in a special holder were supplied as a set of five diaphragms as an accessory for the Lomo Polam polarizing microscope. These diaphragms are mounted onto the polarizing microscope condenser to obtain a combination of these techniques and a phase image in polarized light. Please note that the same condensers can also be used in polarizing microscopes of the Lomo MIN series (for example Lomo MIN-6 or Lomo MIN-8 models) and in microscopes designed for infrared light work from the Lomo MIK series (for example Lomo MIK-4). This means that there is nothing preventing the use of these phase rings in those microscopes as well.

The latest version of the Lomo Polam microscope, namely the Lomo Polam LMPR model, no longer requires this accessory. The Lomo Polam LMPR already features a dedicated rotating polarizing phase condenser (somewhat similar to the Lomo KF-4 condenser).

The last photo in the gallery shows a page from the Lomo Polam microscope manual where this microscope part is presented. In the manual it is shown in figure number 6, item number 65.

If you have such a set but it is incomplete - browse this database - you will also find individual diaphragms offered separately - specifically to solve such situations.
