Description
Nikon LV-NU5 Quintuple Revolving Nosepiece with DIC Slot BD M32 thread
Key Advantage over the standard L-NBD5: While both models accommodate 5 positions of M32-thread BD objectives, the LV-NU5 features a dedicated side DIC slider slot (with a sliding dust cover). Unlike the basic L-NBD5—which is limited strictly to standard Brightfield/Darkfield (BD) observation—the LV-NU5 enables full Differential Interference Contrast (DIC) observation simply by inserting a compatible DIC prism slider
