Iimage below shows the quintuple nosepiece coming with the FU1000 focus block, outside diameter 71 mm.. | Quadruple RMS threaded nosepiece with centering, outside diameter 83 mm.. Because of larger diameter all positions can be filled with Mitutoyo style objectives. | Option with larger nosepiece, outside diameter 110 mm, and Mitutoyo threading (26 mm), allows to install up to 5 Mitutoyo or workalike objectives. |
You can use all positions only when using DIN form factor objectives .

When mixing DIN and Mitutoyo objectives you will need a special extension adapter to keep objectives parfocal. |
