This is description of this part:
Swing-out wide field lens mounted in the condenser holder of Carl Zeiss Standard series microscopes.
The wide field lens provides even illumination across the entire specimen when using low-magnification objectives. In Carl Zeiss Standard series microscopes it is mounted in a pivoting holder located within the condenser holder assembly.
This particular holder complete with the wide field lens was removed from a Zeiss Standard GFL microscope, but it also fits condenser holders used, among others, in the following microscopes:
- Zeiss Standard 14
- Zeiss Standard 16
- Zeiss Standard 18
- Zeiss Standard WL / WL 89
The lens can be removed from its holder (as shown in the accompanying video) and used for other DIY projects. The very fact that it is removable (and sometimes even falls out by itself) is the reason why it is missing from many used microscopes. The component offered here is intended to solve exactly this problem.
