Manufacturer: Lomo
Model: APO-WI-F 70x1,23
Magnification: 70x
Numerical aperture: 1,23
Correction: Apochromat
Tube length: 160 mm
Focal length: 33 mm
Immersion: yes - water
Cover glass: yes - thickness from 0.10 to 0.20 mm
Markings: APO = Apochromat, WI = water immersion, F = phase contrast
Thread: RMS
Year of production: 1972

Note: to work in phase contrast technology you need a Lomo KF-4 condenser (you can see it in the database under number 00653).

This is a professional microscope objective with a very wide range of applications. The main features that make this objective exceptional:
- water immersion is preferred by many users over oil immersion
- very high numerical aperture, allowing the objective to produce a high resolution image
- cover glass thickness correction ring

Standard biological objectives are designed to achieve the best image quality when the specimen is located under a cover glass with a thickness of 0.17 mm (hence the marking on objectives such as 160/0.17). Unfortunately inexpensive cover glasses often do not undergo strict production control and a single package may contain cover glasses with thicknesses of 0.14 mm or 0.19 mm, which reduces observation sharpness.
Thanks to the built-in cover glass thickness correction ring (abbreviated CGTCR, CGCC or CGCR) the objective can be adjusted for every specimen so that it operates optimally. This works even when the actual thickness of the cover glass is unknown, because the effect is simply visible and the adjustment can be done "by eye".

Although this objective is a so-called "short" objective, meaning with a parfocal length of 33 mm, after adding a 12 mm adapter (you can see it in the database under number 99140) it can be used with newer microscopes designed for objectives with a parfocal length of 45 mm.

The Lomo company produced adapters specifically for these objectives (converters) from RMS thread to M27 thread, which makes them a very attractive option for installation in modern Zeiss Axio series microscopes.

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

Focal length: 45 mm
Cover glass: 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.

Manufacturer: Lomo
Magnification: 20x
Model: 20 0.40 P
Numerical aperture: 0.40
Tube length: 160 mm
Focal length: 33 mm
Cover glass: yes, 0.17 mm
Thread: RMS + Pol adapter
Info: P = Polarization

This is an objective designed for transmitted light work with a cover glass.

The RMS thread objective is mounted on a dedicated slide-in adapter that allows it to be used in Lomo MIN series and Lomo Polam series microscopes. Of course, the objective can be unscrewed and another objective can be mounted in the adapter.

The objective itself, once removed from the adapter, is a standard objective that can be used in virtually any microscope with an RMS thread. It is a so-called "short objective" (focal length 33 mm). When a 12 mm adapter is added, the total length becomes 45 mm, allowing it to be used with newer microscopes from any manufacturer.

Lomo polarization objectives with RMS thread can be installed in an RMS-M27 adapter and then used in microscopes such as Lomo Biolam M, Lomo Biolam I, Lomo Lumam, or Lomo ML-2. I have also frequently seen such objectives used in Zeiss Axio series microscopes with M27 thread.

The Pol adapter also allows precise centering of the objective relative to the entire optical path - this requires tools (keys / tools).

Info: I have repeatedly seen information stating that this RMS-Pol adapter is compatible with Leitz Wetzlar polarization microscopes - however, I have not personally verified this.

In summary, this objective is dedicated to Lomo MIN-1, MIN-4, MIN-5, MIN-6, MIN-8, Lomo Polam R-113, Polam L-211, Polam L-213, Polam R-311, Polam LMPR microscopes - but it is practically compatible with any microscope from any manufacturer that supports 160 mm objectives.

Additionally, this objective is very often used for macro photography even without a microscope. This objective does not require a cover glass and works in the "direct-projection" technique, meaning it can be connected directly to a camera without additional optics. This allows achieving a very high magnification scale and great depth of field across the entire image when using focus stacking. The fact that this is a polarization objective (i.e. stress-free optics without internal glass tensions) further improves image quality at high magnifications.

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).

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.

Thread: RMS
Tube length: 160 mm
Focal length: 45 mm
Immersion: yes, oil immersion
Thread: RMS

Only towards the end of its operations did Hertel & Reuss begin producing microscopes with objectives having a 45 mm parfocal length. These were the Hertel & Reuss Labopan and Superpan models. Previously, microscopes from this company used objectives with a 37 mm parfocal length.

This objective fits practically any microscope from any manufacturer, provided that it has an RMS thread and supports objectives with TL=160 mm. Several examples of such microscopes are listed in the "Compatibility" section, but this is not a complete list.

Focal length: 45 mm
Immersion: no (dry objective)
Thread: RMS

This objective can be used both:
- with biological microscopes using transmitted-light illumination
- with inverted microscopes
- with microscopes with reflected-light illumination
- for macro photography by directly connecting it to a camera

This objective fits practically any microscope from any manufacturer, provided that it has an RMS thread and supports objectives for TL=160 mm. Several examples of such microscopes are listed in the "compatibility" section, but this is not a complete list.

Several facts are worth emphasizing:
- many Hund Wetzlar microscope models are identical to models sold by Will Wetzlar due to their joint production. For example, the BX300 and Wilovert models even have the same name. Therefore, Hund Wetzlar microscope objectives can also be used with Will Wetzlar microscopes.
- the companies Eschenbach, Kremp Wetzlar, CBS Beck Kassel and Kosmos Stuttgart also used Will Wetzlar objectives, so Hund Wetzlar microscope objectives can also be used with microscopes from these manufacturers - but it is worth checking the parfocal length first (37 mm or 45 mm)
- objectives with magnifications below 16x (e.g. 4x / 5x or 10x) fit both classic biological microscopes, microscopes with reflected-light illuminators and inverted microscopes.
