The Olympus OM system was in production for such a long time (1972–2003) that it was used with at least 4 generations of Olympus compound microscopes: EH/FH, BH, BH-2 and BX. It is not easy to obtain information about discontinued Olympus microscopes, so I have collected all of the brochures, catalogues and instruction manuals that I can find for the compound and stereo microscopes that are most likely to be used with Olympus OM cameras, and made them available here for downloading.
Manuals for BX and other current Olympus microscopes and accessories can be downloaded here:
System charts for BX and other current Olympus microscopes and accessories can be downloaded here:
