Aryeh,

If you can get to female 37mm threads, we have an adapter.  It has a
parfocality adjustment similar to adjustable C-mount adapters.  We have
clamps for the major microscopes - Leica, Nikon, Zeiss, Olympus, etc.

If you're interested, let me know your scope manufacturer/model and I
can get you the information.

Thanks,
Jim Haley
