Re: Kohler illumination question...

Not sure where to step in here - and I'm somewhat daunted to do so
amongst such clearly well-informed correspondents. But as the OP who
started this thread, may I humbly observe that my original question was
prompted by a suspicion that the crtical V kohler thing hid grey areas
that hadn't been described or discussed at length in an online forum
(to my satisfaction, anyway)

It seems I was right in the general sense, and while the discussion is
very interesting, any consensus reached will make no difference in
practical terms. In summary: as long as the approximate focus of a
Kohler/critical illumination system is somewhere between the filament
and the ground glass - the final result will always be judged on the
subject, not the fidelity of it's reproduction.

Cool stuff though! I'm learning a lot - please keep it up :-)
