Another possibility to check out is to make sure that the focus limiter is not set to a position that prevents bringing the high power objectives to focus.
Hi, thank you for all work One method to see the front lens of a microscope objective is to check it with a stereo microscope if you have one Another way I find, is to illuminate the lens from the back with a laser and see the image projected on a white clean wall, work most with 60 and 100x lenses, rotate the lens to identify which patterns correspond to the microscope objective, laser lens will have also some dust on it and you will see it on wall. Do not look directly with your eyes thru the microscope lens with laser on, use projection on the wall, usually at 1.5m distance from the wall the laser will make approximate 2m diameter image of the lens. Shure the image will over impose all lenses surfaces of the objective (you will se even the phase ring).
Checking the front lens of a 40x objective is easily accomplished by removing one of your oculars (10x) and inverting it (handheld) as you would a loupe. Looking through the front lens of your ocular you want to get in close to the front lens of the objective. Now you will now see any immersion oil that may need cleaning. We have also seen 40x objectives hitting the mounting media of freshly made teaching or clinical slides.....too soon before it dries! Big problem to clean but it can be done. Also we encounter objectives that have delaminated (inside) due to age as well as those that are dropped on the floor (front lens takes the blow)...get out your wallet for a new objective. They cannot be repaired economically. The responsible culprit will replace the objective on the nosepiece and wait for the next user to discover the mysterious problem.
Thank you for the nice feedback. This is possible because I have now a certain routine in filming and video editing, so it has become manageable now. And I do enjoy it, so it does not feel like much work!
Very good explanation, I agree that most common problem is contamination by immersion oil, I made this mistake yesterday, moving my 20x right into the oil!
I once thought my 40x objective was not working/was damaged. It turns out, I just put the slide upside down. I couldn't see the sample with it because the glass was too thick.
He already made a video for that. I think it's called "How to clean eyepieces and objectives" or something like that. There is no actual "how often". If it gets dirty because of your eyelashes or something like that you should remove it carefully. Dont take it out or sth. like that except you see dust after the surface cleaning. If its clean you risk to get dust or other particles in your microscope which will make your life much harder :) Hopefully this was useful for you. If you want to know how to clean it, watch his video :)
In my 100 there are tiny little dots like almost looks like tiny little water dots but they're all in uniform like it's not sporadic. It's all together and it won't come off. I don't know what that is.
I figured it out I had a choice to either buy new ones or open it all up and clean it. Now it’s cleaning it you gotta make sure you’re in an absolutely dust free zone which I made for these purposes. And you’ll need a magnifying glass like a good one you could just use the 15 or 25 eye piece and go close up and you’ll see any little spec on the lenses. There is lots being left behind before because they didn’t see the teeny weenie the ones that you can’t really see unless you’re using something to see it with. Now with this said sometimes they have two glass pieces together really close so you can’t even tell that it’s two pieces but it is so in the middle of that you have this trapped in dirt or whatever it is and you can’t just get at it you have to actually go Unscrew all the things inside her screw up all the things inside to pull it all out. Just make sure you put it all in order somewhere sturdy and take a picture of it so you know which way it goes back inside and pay attention to the concave glass pieces and which side they go onso this is how I got all my glass perfectly clean because even that one does spec ruins everything
Hi sir...i m using 10X eyepiece and 45X objective...i have tried all possible way by changing the distance between specimen and objective and the distance between eyepiece and objective...image is blur...plz help

This greenscreen is actually very good, I didn't even realize till half way through

Hi, thank you for all work
One method to see the front lens of a microscope objective is to check it with a stereo microscope if you have one
Another way I find, is to illuminate the lens from the back with a laser and see the image projected on a white clean wall, work most with 60 and 100x lenses, rotate the lens to identify which patterns correspond to the microscope objective, laser lens will have also some dust on it and you will see it on wall.

Thank you very much for very informative videos.

really some solid contents appreciate man
Oliver, your videos are always top quality and you give yourself more work to do with a newsletter?!
Really appreciate your efforts - many thanks.

Nice informative show mate...
Thanks, microbehunter for your helping me and got much better on my Qu.
Very good explanation, I agree that most common problem is contamination by immersion oil, I made this mistake yesterday, moving my 20x right into the oil!
I also had this problem. Thanks!
I once thought my 40x objective was not working/was damaged. It turns out, I just put the slide upside down. I couldn't see the sample with it because the glass was too thick.
I had the same problem with 100x objective. Just replace the upper glass with a 0.1m thickness glass
I was wondering, how often do you need to clean your eyepieces?
He already made a video for that. I think it's called "How to clean eyepieces and objectives" or something like that.

Every time you use your dick you must wash off the lubricants same to lens. Every one use clean it up.
Common senses is the stand post when you come to what decision you have to make mate.
Cleanliness is next to goodness, the better it is the best result your work done is best satisfied.

Same. What are they? What is the solution?

Great information
I have a question. Which objective of 45x is better spring loaded or non spring loaded (fixed)?
Hi sir...i m using 10X eyepiece and 45X objective...i have tried all possible way by changing the distance between specimen and objective and the distance between eyepiece and objective...image is blur...plz help
Thanks very usefull
sir i want to fit my NIKON to my stereo zoom microscope please help where I can get an adapter like you which is present in this video
