Re: Phaco for Nikon SE? 20x oculars?

A Nikon S series is hard to buy for since it uses short
barrels.

Does the Series S can mount only "short barrel" objectives? What if I use
standard objectives? It does not seem that the objectives currently mounted
on my SC are any shorter than standard objectives. How can I distinguish the
standard from the short ones?

The SC (early 80s) was designed as a student microscope and the lenses
were specially designed to be tightened on using the key ways near the
thread so that the students didn't 'borrow' them. Standard RMS
threaded Nikon CF lenses for the Labophot/Optiphot/ Alphaphot etc will
work OK on the SC.

The black 'S' series SKe, Model S, Lke, Skt, MS, etc and Apophot,
Micropan form the 70s used short barrel lenses.
