Siddiq, Siddiq. Now which source does one normally use to look up stuff like
this? Right.
The Unofficial Olympus OM Sales Information File
http://www.veluwen.demon.nl/om-sif.htm

Ok, ok, the Photomicrogroup is still under development, but the data for the
OM-mount Adapter L and the Eyepiece adapters are already published. However, no
need to search Heaven And Earth for these Oly adapters - specialized microscope
or photography shops have generic adapters. You need a generic microscope
tube-eyepiece adapter, a generic microscopic photography tube and an OM-mount
adapter for this tube.

If everything else fails you can buy these from Euromex
( http://www.euromex.nl/ ) which is _the_ Dutch microscope manufacturer, but I'm
sure simular firms exist in the States. I have their 3-piece adapter for my
Olympus (what else? :) KC microscope, and it works fine.

Another method, btw, is just to remove the microscope eyepiece and aim your lens
in the tube. This gives a circular image.
