Re: Need help identifying parts of a Nikon SMZ microscope

Perhaps the box is not the original for your device...

Nikon extension rings model K is/was a set of 5 different extension rings produced for manual Nikon F cameras, for "macro"photography using e.g. a standard 50mm f/2.0 lens.

(These "simple" and totally non-automatic rings have a combination of Nikon F-mount and 52mm filter thread, and I still and often use them with my FM2 camera.)
