That would be a solution, and I did try it, but on the Labolux the
field lens is within the base before the 45deg. mirror. The Ortholux
has a diaghram built into the base but there's ho such provision in
the Labolux.

Hello Trevor

If the lamp field lens is flat on the stand base you could add either
an iris diaphragm (eg from junk saes, camera shop junk box etc) or
make card stops measured to size. This topical tip by Ian Walker on
the Micscape site shows some routes.

Hi Trevor

Ah right. Just curious, if you have the manual what procedure does it
recommend for the condenser to be focussed. As the plane it recommends
is presumably the best place to put a homemade stop / iris if doable.
