Leica MZ16 A, MS5, MZ6, MZ125, MZ16 FA Attachment for vertical and oblique observation, Graticules

Attachment for vertical and oblique observation

•The attachment for vertical and oblique observation enables spatial objects to be observed from above, and also from all around at an angle of 45°.

•The microscope carrier must be fitted in the lower position 1 (page 34).

•For MS5, MZ6: Fit the 1⋅ achromatic objective by screwing its adapter ring directly into the optics carrier.

•Spacer rings are required for the Leica

MZ75, MZ95, MZ125 and MZ16 to secure the attachment for vertical and oblique observation to the optics carrier (page 32).

• Only usable with 1⋅ achromatic objec- tive.

A detailed description can be found in the user manual M2-266.

Graticules

•The graticules for length measurements and numbering are fitted in mounts and can be inserted into the eyepieces.

•A special measuring graticule is available for the Leica MZ16 A (see the user manual M2-116).

•A high-precision object micrometer with 50-mm scale, 0.1 mm and 0.01 mm graduation, allows for calibration corresponding to the selected magnification.

•Preferably measure with the microscope carrier AX in vertical position. The measurements are more accurate with- out the convergence angle in the stereoscopic image.

•Graticules show boundary lines for all film formats.
