Trinocular Viewing Tube with Modified Photo Port

$360.00

Nikon Trinocular Viewing Tube with Modified Photo Port

This appears to be a conventional Nikon trinocular viewing head for the Optiphot series of microscopes that has been modified by Optical Specialties for use on one of their instruments. The binocular portion of the system is unchanged, as is the diverter prism for choosing between the observation portion of the tube and the photo tube.

However, the phototube has an extensive modification. The upper portion of the tube has a permanently-fitted sleeve along with a small relay lens system recessed within the tube. The annular dovetail for mounting the tube on the microscope stand is unaltered.

This tube was used with a special image rotation system (available separately). Cosmetically the tube is in great condition except for a couple of chips in the enamel of the base (see third photo). This may be used as a great source of spare parts to restore a damaged tube, or one could invest in a new diverter prism enclosure to bring it back to factory original condition. The optics are in perfect condition.
