:
: All the microscopes I have ever used have objectives with the RMS (Royal
: Microscopical Society) thread, that is 0.8 inches diameter, 36 tpi, the
same
: as the Zuiko 20mm f/3.5 and 38mm f/3.5 macro lenses.
:
: My microscope objectives fit perfectly on the PM-MTob objective mount.
You're right; I over-estimated the size of the thread of the bellows lenses;
must be because the lenses are so much thicker as microscope lenses.
I just wondered: is there any serious use to put one of these macro lenses
on a microscope, or a microscope lens on a bellows with PM-MTob?
