old specimen strains&cracks
old broken specimen which I have kept for about 15 years; I like coming back to it, it reveals so many effects on and on...

I'm looking for the the extemely rare V-IM magnification changer for the E800 scope. If you have seen a listing or have one for sale please let me know.

Sorry for seeming a bit ignorant - the colours are beautiful and they're certainly mesmerising, but what is it/are they?
Thank you

This effect is a result of cracks and strains of medium inside broken specimen.

Hi, Johan,
To elaborate a bit on the previous answer, if you jigger your DIC settings a bit you can get interference colours in your specimen, and effect called optical staining. It isn't very widely used but can lead to spectacular results in otherwise colourless specimens as Litonotus has shown.
