Item Description Pentax Microscope Adapter II
Photomicrography, also called photomicroscopy, is a very specialized type of photography and involves creating images through microscopes and requires some knowledge and skills with microscopes as with cameras. Entry level microscopes are quite affordable.
The
Pentax Microscope Adapter II is comprised of three components The Main Tube and the Fastener Tube components are connected with a proprietary bayonet connection and a Light Sealing Tube (
frequently missing in used units).
During installation on a microscope, the Adapter Main Tube is separated from the Fastener Tube and connected to the camera body. Then the Fastener Tube and Light Sealing Tube, if required, are attached to the microscope, and then they are joined with the bayonet connection.
This adapter can easily be used with K mount DSLRs. As the camera is usually removed from the microscope by separating the Pentax Microscope Adapter II at its own bayonet connection, using an (M42) to K mount adaptor is not all that inconvenient. With photomicrography speed is never an issue.
If you are not familiar with this field of photography the
Quekett Microscopical Cub website contains an incredible amount of information and has very readable and easily understood articles about the subject.
This adapter is like new, in original packaging, contains all the components, and the hard copy User manual.
The hard copy manual is in Japanese, but a hi-res (suitable for printing)
English PDF copy of the manual will be provided.
