[OpenSPIM] Nikon vs Olympus

[Michael Weber]

Hi Leon,

you can get a 200 mm Nikon tube lens on Thorlabs (ITL200). They also have the appropriate adapters and mounts.

Best,
Michael

Say, Nikon x16 objective has x16 mag assuming 200 mm Nikon tube lens. Olympus tube lens has f=180 mm, so magnification will be proportionally smaller: 16 * 180/200 = 14.4. Please correct me if I am wrong.
