[QUOTE="jalank, post: 372948, member: 33826"] Let me first thank you for viewing on my thread. I have a question and as a result of my ignorance don't even know how to go about searching for an answer in a productive way. I selected this site for no other reason than my ownership of a number of Nikon cameras. I am looking for a name for a particular type of optical mount. It is used in the Bausch & Lomb Model N photomicrography equipment. It appears as a flared male fitting and a female fitting that is tightened into place by two thumb-screws the ends of which project into the depression of the flared male fitting. I have encountered this type of mounting before, in generic lens adapters it is often the mechanism by which a mounting ring is inserted into a lens mount. This same principle is often employed as a means of fixing a lamp globe to an overhead light. I have seen the same mount, though in a smaller size, used in a Balda photomicrography mount. Is there a name for this variety of mount? I have tried simply searching for threadless optical mounts but the results are nearly always some variety of bayonet. This is not a bayonet, I know that much. I ask because I desire to incorporate a Nikon 1 J1 into the B&L photomicrography mount and wish to have an adapter which is more directly compatible than that which I now employ. I will post a photograph when I have the time. [/QUOTE]
