This is description of this part:
Lomo microscope objective for polarization.
Ideal external condition and perfect optical condition. It is not easy to find an objective in this condition on the second-hand market.
Manufacturer: Lomo
Magnification: 95x
Model: MI 95x 1,25 190-P
Numerical Aperture: 1,25
Tube length: 190 mm
Focal length: (?)
Cover slip: yes, 0,17 mm (?)
Thread: RMS + Pol adapter
Marking: "P" = Polarization
Marking: "MI" = Oil immersion
This objective is for use with transmitted or reflected light with a cover slip (although I am not sure if it definitely requires a cover slip).
This specific item was used with the Lomo Polam P-312 microscope, i.e., with an EPI reflected light illuminator.
The RMS-thread objective is mounted on a suitable sleeve that allows using the objective in Lomo MIN-6 / Lomo MIN-8 / Lomo MIN-1 / Lomo Polam microscopes. Of course, the objective can be unscrewed and another objective can be screwed into the sleeve.
The Pol adapter also allows centering the objective relative to the entire optical path - this requires tools (wrenches / tools).
Info: I have repeatedly seen information stating that this RMS-Pol adapter is compatible with Leitz Wetzlar polarization microscopes - but I have not personally checked this.
What is this part needed for?
- If you have a polarisation microscope and need an objective lens with this magnification
- If you only need a slider to use with other objectives
