Depending on the microscope configuration or the camera used, the distance between the camera lens
and the lens mount (3-32/
6
) might need to be optimized (see double arrow). This is required, in
particular, if an untrimmed image cannot be achieved in any zoom position of the camera lens.
Make the following settings on the camera:
•
Switch off the autofocus.
•
Set the distance to
∞
.
•
Set the exposure control to timed automatic.
•
Set the aperture as wide as possible (i.e. select a small f-stop number!).
Not all cameras feature these options. Please refer to the operating instructions of the camera used.
•
Undo grub screw (3-32/
5
).
•
Vary the distance between the camera lens and lens mount in steps, i.e. move the sliding mount with
the camera on the lens mount by defined steps.
•
Zoom the camera lens from the wide-angle position (W) to the telephoto position (T).
•
Perform the test until the image fills the format without trimming or vignetting.
•
Tighten grub screw (3-32/
5
) again.
If you use a camera adapter combination not expressly recommended by Carl Zeiss, it is possible that you
will be unable to generate an untrimmed image.
