We use Optical Character Recognition (OCR) during our scanning and processing workflow to make the content of each page searchable. You can view the automatically generated text below as well as copy and paste individual pieces of text to quote in your own work.

Text recognition is never 100% accurate. Many parts of the scanned page may not be reflected in the OCR text output, including: images, page layout, certain fonts or handwriting.

CH. IX] MICROPROJECTION WITH OCULARS 231 In using the ordinary oculars a small tube must be screwed into the large microscope tube as for ordinary observation (fig. 147, 197). Special oculars have been designed for projection. Some, like those of Zeiss (fig. 128) give sharp brilliant images, but the field is very small. Williams, Brown and Earle have a very large proNo. 2. No. 4. FIG. 128. PROJECTION OCULARS OF ZEISS. (From Zeiss' Catalogue, No. jo). A section has been removed to show the construction. Both are of the negative form. The eye lens is in a smaller tube with spiral movement to enable the operator to focus the image of the diaphragm of the ocular sharply on the screen. Below are shown in face view the upper ends of the oculars with their graduated circles. By noting the position in any experiment it is easy to set the position exactly the same if the experiment is to be repeated. No. 2, No. 4 These numbers indicate that the ocular magnifies the image two or four times (see § 391). jection ocular of the Huygenian form which magnifies about twice. On account of the loss of light and the restriction of the field of view, the writers of this book do not advocate the use of oculars for ordinary micro-projection, but sec § 401. § 357a. Designation of oculars. — At the present time an ocular is usually designated by the increase in magnification it gives a microscopic image when the microscope is used in the ordinary way. For example, if the objective alone would give an image 10 times as long as the object, then an ocular x 2 should double that size, thus giving an image magnified 20 times, and an ocular x 4, an image magnified 40 times and so on.
