# Description and specifications:
Light collector lens together with a frosted diffuser for the Olympus CHK microscope. The lens is mounted in a plastic holder which also serves as the filter holder.

Mechanically, this lens assembly is located inside the microscope base beneath the condenser. It is secured from below (inside the microscope base) with two screws. The lamp is located inside the microscope base directly beneath this light collector.

This component performs several functions:
- it collimates the light beam
- thanks to the built-in frosted diffuser, it homogenizes the light so that there are no bright or coloured hot spots caused by the lamp filament
- it also serves as the holder for round filters

The last photograph in the gallery shows the complete Olympus CHK microscope. An arrow indicates exactly which component is being offered and where it is located inside the microscope, making identification straightforward.
