MICROSCOPE AND ACCESSORIES. 



the field- lens aids the objective in the formation of the real, inverted image, and 

 increases the field of view, it also combines with the eyedeus in rendering the im- 

 age achromatic. 



\ 36. Compensating Oculars. — These are oculars specially constructed for use 

 with the apochromatic objectives. They compensate for aberrations outside the 

 axis which could not be so readily eliminated in the objective itself. An ocular 

 of this kind, magnifviug but twice, is made for use with high powers, for the 

 sake of the large field in finding objects; it is called a searching ocular; those 

 ordinarily used for observation are in contradistinction called working oculars. 

 Part of the compensating oculars are positive and part negative (Fig. 31). 



\ 37. Projection Oculars. — These are oculars especially designed for projecting 

 a microscopic image on the screen for class demonstrations, or for photographing 

 with the microscope. While they are specially adapted for use with apochromatic 

 objectives, they may also be used with ordinary achromatic objectives of large 

 numerical aperture.

 4. The numbers indicate the amount the ocular 

 magnifies the image formed by the objective as 

 with the compensation oculars. ( Zeiss' Catalog,

5 3S. Micrometer Ocular. — This is an ocular 

 connected with an ocular micrometer. The 

 micrometer may be removable, or it may lie per- 

 manently in connection with the ocular, and ar- 

 ranged with a spring and screw, by which it may 

 be moved back and forth across the field. (See
