NU,

That is a good reference article; now on my list of things to do.

The article is written by Wim van Egmond (he's 'round here somewhere).

If you do a forum 'Search for Author' (second input field) using 'Wim van Egmond' as the search criteria; you will find valuable information.

I have tried using that approach on my BH-BHA and could not acheive the effect he demonstrates despite much fiddling and numerous attempts. It does look nice in the examples he shows.

Will, when things are set up properly, you should see a small image of that filter appearing at the rear lens of your objective. Did you happen to check that? I suspect that with different condensers it may be difficult to get the filter properly sized and positioned along the optical axis.
