The adapters I've made since the original photo port adapter was lost.
For old Leitz microscope, mine is SM with 170mm system; maybe works also for 160.
The trinocular head has cylindrical fitting, 38mm diameter.
One model (the tall one) is made for Afocal photography: an eyepiece Periplan fits in the hole; a camera w lens is then fitted in with the M42 thread of the adapter.
The adapter makes a 160mm equivalent tube; for use with DIN eyepieces (& 170 objectives!) just use it; for leitz 170mm and its Periplan, you should print also the 10mm extender tube, that keeps the eyepiece 10mm higher. For 160mm objectives, 160-170+12 - ……..
This adapter is the blue tube part in the photos. You don't need all the rest unless you're me.
Just mount the camera with objective over the eyepiece with some M42 tubes and adapter.
The other model (the smaller one) is for direct projection; the image should be about 20.5mm above its end. It is made to wotk with C-mount cameras attached with my C-M42 adapter. Other C-M42 adapters may work too. May need some shims to get all precisely parfocal.
Print:
Please rotate them upside down! The print should start from the threaded side down.
No supports needed, print slowly and fine, to get a nice M42 thread.
