Re: [meteorite-list] Question about Polarizing Microscope Lomo Polam P-211
On Novemeber 5, 2007 and in Question about Polarizing Microscope Lomo Polam P-211, Pat Brown asked: Can any of you help me learn anything more about this microscope? I contacted the good folks at Lomo USA and they tell me that this microscope was never supported in the US market and that they can offer no help or support. I am appealing to the international members of this list for any help they might be able to offer. I do not use a Lomo however I would be delighted to try to answer any general questions about using a petrographic microscope.

Also, there is a lot expertise on this list with petrographic / polarizing microscopes. Best Regards, Paul H. __ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!

[meteorite-list] Question about Polarizing Microscope Lomo Polam P-211
Hello Listees, OK this is a gloat. However, there is also a request for assistance. I just scored a compound polarizing mineralogical microscope that I am trying to learn some more about. I am trying to find a users manual and a service manual (preferably in english, but any language is more than I have now). The good part is that I got this microscope for $50. The down side is that the eyepieces are replacements. The objectives are also replacements and there are only 2 objectives. A through search of the web has turned up very little information and no hint of a manual. Can any of you help me learn anything more about this microscope? I contacted the good folks at Lomo USA and they tell me that this microscope was never supported in the US market and that they can offer no help or support.
