I don't care for it. BTW...your link does not work since the change. Tue, 21 May 2013 01:27:35 GMT WilliamM http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Microscope/message/75536 http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Microscope/message/75536 I believe I have an S-ke manual, and a brochure of the L-ke. I also have a catalog. Those that are scans I can send you. Just email me off list. Here is my Tue, 21 May 2013 00:10:51 GMT Frez http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Microscope/message/75535 http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Microscope/message/75535 Thanks for the tip Ray. I'll likely list a Zetopan DF condenser paired with a beautiful matching Reichert 100x plan with iris. That should draw euro attention Mon, 20 May 2013 23:59:55 GMT Ray Burgess http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Microscope/message/75534 http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Microscope/message/75534 Hello Frez, If you put it on Ebay make sure you list it internationally. Leitz and Zeiss parts can sell for insane money in Germany. About 7 years ago a Leitz Mon, 20 May 2013 23:33:20 GMT Ricardo Tsukamoto http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Microscope/message/75533 http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Microscope/message/75533 Rich, The L-Ke mentioned in your referred link is a commercial BROCHURE, in colors and nice, but is not the manual. No need to buy such brochure; it is Mon, 20 May 2013 23:32:52 GMT Ricardo Tsukamoto http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Microscope/message/75532 http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Microscope/message/75532 Hello Fredric, Your site shows a comprehensive Nikon S collection pictured very nicely ! I have been searching for the same manuals as you but still lack the Mon, 20 May 2013 22:39:51 GMT Frez http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Microscope/message/75530 http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Microscope/message/75530 Hi Don That pic is in my photo album. You can click on more pics at the bottom of the page. There are no condensers or objectives.

Forster http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Microscope/message/75527 http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Microscope/message/75527 If your unit is substantially identical about $1225, IMO. That's about 1 bid increment above the third highest bid. YMMV, -John Mon, 20 May 2013 21:53:32 GMT saint09@... http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Microscope/message/75526 http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Microscope/message/75526 Looking over previous threads, I see that I'm not the only one in search of these owners manuals. I would gladly pay a reasonable fee for scans or photocopies Mon, 20 May 2013 21:37:14 GMT Frez http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Microscope/message/75525 http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Microscope/message/75525 A short time ago a Leitz Universal Stage sold for $1675 USD. http://tinyurl.com/lm56y9w That's pretty substantial.

Not sure what RHS is (right-hand side?) but Mon, 20 May 2013 18:12:59 GMT mecium.para http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Microscope/message/75523 http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Microscope/message/75523 I agree with what Chris said, but suggest not using immersion oil on dry objectives - they may not be sealed against that. I have bought quite a few dry
