<p>[QUOTE="desertgem, post: 438067, member: 15199"]It is a 38mm lens that screws on the bottom of body of the B&L scope body. It does force you to move the scope up to the max ( I set the scope on a hollow base to raise it more and put a large coin below the stage level. ( hope that makes sense). On ebay, I have seen them from $35 - $100+, depending on the brand, B&L cheaper than Nikon or Zeiss. </p><p><br /></p><p>On a biology forum, someone said that a camera's 38 mm filter would fit. Seems some fixed lens camera use it for wide angle, so you might check for a 0.5x wide angle lens/filter.</p><p><br /></p><p>Jim</p><p><br /></p><p>P.S. Mark, yes I consider machine doubling as a probability, my indecisiveness is that the shelf isn't as flat as most machine effect, and some areas do tend to show possible serif doubling. But.....I have put it back in it's collection until I get more time to work with it or send it out. Thanks for the research and comments, appreciate them![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
