This top-of-the-line binocular stereo zoom microscope is equipped with SUPER widefield optics, and a versatile dual LED illumination system. This microscope has been designed for use in organic or temperature-sensitive applications like dissecting live tissues or observing live organisms. Our low-temperature LED system allows you to use both incident illumination, which shines light down onto a 3-dimensional specimen, and reflecting-plate bottom illumination, which shines light up through a transparent sample. Because the top and bottom LED lights are controlled by separate dimmers, you are able to customize lighting for the optimal level of illumination, whatever the situation.
The stereo optics provide clear, sharp images with excellent focus-depth and a large working-distance. With 0.7X-4.5X zoom objectives, moving through the magnification range is as easy as turning a knob. 10X wide-field eyepieces provide an ample magnification range from 7X to 45X, with high-eyepoint optics to accommodate glasses or goggles. A 2X Barlow lens is included, which can be mounted to the objective housing to double the magnification range to 14X-90X. This will also result in decreased working distance. The combined magnification ranges provide 7X-90X.
This microscope is especially useful for applications that require cool illumination. It is perfect for the examination of organic matter, such as insects, plants, or virtually any 3-dimensional, temperature-sensitive object. It is ideal for those who work in biology, forestry, archaeology, and agriculture. With its high resolution, good depth, and broad field of view, this microscope can be used for both educational and professional purposes in research labs, hospitals, schools, and veterinary offices.
Monitor and capture photos and videos with the included 8MP USB2.0 camera. The C-mount camera is specially designed for use with microscopes, allowing you to watch live images, and to record photos or videos on your computer. This ability to view microscopic images on your computer reduces eye-strain, and allows groups of people to view images at the same time. A 0.5X reduction lens is included for use with 23mm-30.5mm ports to capture more of the microscope's field-of-view. Our professional software for Windows provides a wide assortment of capture and photo-editing functions including color correction, time-lapse capture, image stitching, and a full complement of measuring tools. A lite version of our software is available for Mac with essential functionality for capturing photos and videos.
