I
am currently using an LM digital adapter with an old microscope. My
images are only focused in the centre, while at the edges they are flat
and blurred (when I refocus, the edges become clear and the middle
blurs).
All of our LM digital adapters have
been developed primarily for use with modern microscopes (made after
1980) that are manufactured by top name brands. These microscopes have
an “infinity optical system”
which delivers corrected images even without an eyepiece. These optical
systems consist of two parts: a lens and a compatible tube lens for
correcting flaws in the image. This means that the image is error-free
after the tube lens, i.e. before the eyepiece or the LM digital adapter.
Older microscopes still tend to have a finite optical system (170/160
mm tube length). These microscopes have lenses that exhibit serious
flaws (image warping, spherical and chromatic aberrations, etc.) and
this applies to all lenses, no matter how much they cost. These flaws
can be resolved by using what is known as a compensating eyepiece (or
compensating projective eyepiece). As every microscope manufacturer’s “finite lenses”
exhibit different residual errors, unfortunately there is no single LM
digital adapter that can improve or correct the various flaws of all
the different makes. The only sensible solution is to use a microscope
with an infinity optical system.
