Mystery Zeiss condenser / Mysteriöser Zeiss Kondensor

[AleksandarK]

Hello,

I need some help from Zeiss microscope experts.

Do you know the exact model of the microscope in the pictures and what type of condenser and lighting it has?

I was not able to find a similar condenser in the literature that is available on the internet.

Thanks in advance,

Aleksandar

Hi Aleksandar, It looks like an early Lumipan with a 'pancratic' condenser, with which you can vary the NA of the condenser without the use of an iris.

Hope that helps, René

and its the same, as the pankratic Kondenser from LOMO (russia). It comes with different front lenses (NA 0,3/1,2).

Hi Aleksandar,

there were two different condensers for the Lumipan (see figure from an old auction in the end).

PS: according to the auction site this booklet is from 1940.
