socket

This is an external electric illuminator for older type microscopes that use a mirror as a light source.

Mirror microscopes may have the mirror mounted vertically or horizontally, and this lamp (this illuminator) is compatible with both mounting types, as it has two mounting pins.

Note that this illuminator uses bulbs with a standard E14 socket, so an LED bulb can also be installed.

The PZO LM-2 illuminator has a place for a round filter with a diameter of 32 mm. Typically, the following are placed there:
- a diffuser to achieve uniform illumination
- a blue filter to convert the yellow, warm bulb light into a more white (cool) light
- or a blue diffuser to achieve both effects at the same time

Note - the PZO LM-2 illuminator is a so-called "simple" illuminator and does not allow achieving Koehler illumination. An external microscope lamp operating in the Koehler standard is called PZO LMK.

This is a universal microscope lamp and can be used with microscopes from many manufacturers.

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.

Note - this model of microscope objective is very often used for macro photography and focus stacking. More information on this can be found at the end of this description.

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.

Poland
- Model: 5/0.15 160/-
- Alternative model marking: 5/0.15 160/0
- Magnification: 5x
- Numerical aperture N.A.: 0.15
- Correction: achromatic
- Focal length FL: 33 mm
- Tube length: 160 mm
- Cover glass: not required, but may be used
- Immersion: no (dry objective)
- Thread: RMS

This model has a metal housing with no lens at its end. Additionally, this housing can be unscrewed without affecting the operation of the objective - resulting in a relatively large working distance of more than 20 mm.

Three features:
- large working distance exceeding 20 mm
- exceptionally high numerical aperture N.A. of 0.15
- achromatic correction allowing direct projection use
make this relatively uncommon model very frequently chosen for macro photography using a microscope objective connected to a camera (focus stacking).

The fact that this objective has FL = 33 mm allows it to be used with microscopes from other manufacturers, including:
- Lomo Biolam
- Lomo MBB-1A
- Carl Zeiss Jena LG / Lu / Lumipan
- Carl Zeiss Jena Nf
- Olympus CH

Note! Please note that the FL = 33 mm focal length means that this objective DOES NOT FIT the following microscopes:
- PZO Biolar
- PZO Studar

Early versions of this objective (with low serial numbers) have the engraved marking 5/0.15 160/0 suggesting that the objective is intended for use without a cover glass. This is true, but more precisely this objective can work both without a cover glass and with one. In newer versions the engraving already reads 5/0.15 160/- where this "minus" already means "indifferent".

any microscope from any manufacturer that allows the use of eyepieces with a mounting diameter of 23.2 mm.

The company "Dr. G. Schuchardt Göttingen" did not and does not produce microscopes. Previously, it primarily sold microscopes manufactured by Hertel & Reuss and Will Wetzlar under its own brand.

microscope objective:
Manufacturer: PZO Poland
Model: 40/0.65 170/0.17
Magnification: 40x
Correction: Achromat
Numerical aperture: 0.65
Tube length: 170 mm (very rare in PZO)
Focal length: 33 mm
Cover glass: yes, 0.17 mm thickness
Immersion: no (dry objective)
Thread: RMS

Please note that this objective was designed for microscopes with a 170 mm tube length. This refers to older PZO microscope models:
- PZO MinO
- PZO M100
- PZO ML1 / ML2 and ML3
- PZO MB1 and MB2
- however, this is definitely not a complete list

It can be used with any microscope capable of accepting RMS objectives with TL=170 mm and FL=33 mm. After installing a 12 mm adapter, this objective will of course have FL=45 mm.

Many microscopes from the 1950s and 1960s support both TL=170 mm and TL=160 mm objectives. Interestingly, in many microscopes designed for a 160 mm tube length it is possible to use objectives designed for a 170 mm tube length if the microscope eyepieces are pulled out by 10 mm in the head tube (a solution used in Leitz Wetzlar microscopes).

Model: 20 0,40
Magnification: 20x
Correction: Achromat
Numerical aperture: 0.40
Tube length: 160 mm
Focal length: 33 mm
Cover glass: 0.17 mm
Immersion: no
Thread: RMS
Serial number: 01234

It can be used with any microscope from any manufacturer. Of course, the microscope must be compatible, i.e. support RMS objectives, TL=160 mm and FL=33 mm.

After installing a 12 mm adapter, this combination of adapter and objective will function as an objective with FL=45 mm.

This objective is attractive mainly to collectors because:
- there are very few microscope objectives with the LZOS logo on the secondary market
- the objective has a so-called "golden serial number": 01234
