The Galilean optical system employs two (right/left) independent and parallel zoom optical paths, achieving both superior optical performance and high system modularity. Careful selection of lens surface coatings and apochromatic zoom optics make it possible to observe and document specimen in more similar coloration to their original authentic colors.
Covering a zoom magnification range of 8x-56x with its 1x objective, and offering up to 112x magnification with a 2x objective, the SZX7’s macro-to-micro flexibility makes it suitable for a wide range of routine observation and inspection tasks.
The DFPlan series combines high-NA resolving power and working comfort with "distortion-free" optical design for exceptionally flat imaging, and includes a 2x objective lens with an NA of 0.2 for high-resolution imaging at 600 linepairs per millimeter.
The universal reflected/transmitted light LED illumination stand brings together all the advantages of LED technology. The flat, high-brightness LEDs allow successful integration of transmitted illumination into a very slim base, which in turn facilitates easy specimen access and manipulation.
With a slim 41.5 mm design, that is approximately half the thickness of previous halogen lamp transmitted light illumination bases, new LED transmitted light illumination bases have a lower height to enable a low eyepoint and easy access to base-mounted samples during observation and operation.
The LED illumination base SZX2-ILLTQ with quad position turret enables the user to choose cartridges and to switch from brightfield (standard/high/low), oblique (standard/high/low), darkfield, polarized illumination, and shutter with a simple turn. A one position LED illumination base is also an option (SZX2-ILLTS). This makes the SZX7 a flexible microscope for various samples and observation tasks.
