INTRODUCTION TO OUR STEREO MICROSCOPE RANGE
The OXTL are the most used, all purpose series of our stereo microscopes. For these we have a large range of accessories, and applied to photo-micrography, they give perfectly sharp images up to about 100x enlargement. These scopes use Greenough stereo optic. Our best stereo microscope, the OZOOM1020, has parallel optics and is capable of useful magnifications to over 200x. This is one of the very best stereo microscopes available, and the identical scope with a fancy name-brand costs a multiple of our price.

The modular design of the following zoom stereo microscopes enables them to be offered with a choice of conventional stand or boom stand. Boom stands allow the microscope to swing into or out of position and also allow the angle of the microscope to be changed.

These zoom stereo microscopes are easy to operate, have a long working distance, display a clear resolved image, and have an integrated enclosure. They are used extensively in medical research and health care, biology, botany, research and agriculture, as well as in electronic component manufacturing. They are especially suited for LED, PCB inspection, pressing plating and electronic component inspection.

All our microscopes are "camera ready". The OXTL series supports our eyepiece cameras, whereas the OZOOM series supports our c-mount cameras. - see page O7.

Final magnification in microscopy depends on several factors. In stereo or macro systems the magnification at the eye is the magnification of the objective multiplied by that of the eyepiece. If an additional lens is added to the front of the objective, both, photo and viewing magnifications, whereas the use of different eyepieces changes viewed magnifications only. Photo magnification is subject to other, additional factors.

ZOOM STEREO MICROSCOPES
Working distance of these microscopes is 100mm. Eyepieces do not change working distance, but objective converter lenses do. The 1.5x converter lens reduces the working distance to 40mm. Shorter working distances marginally improve resolution and decrease depths of (apparent) focus.

CMO ZOOM STEREO MICROSCOPE WITH PARALLEL OPTICS

Ergonomically designed zoom stereo microscope with parallel optics, high magnification and high zoom ratio. The base has a wide front and rounded corners, allowing operators to work while resting their arms in a natural position. Focusing controls are positioned to minimise fatigue.

OZOOM1020 incorporates a powerful combination of advanced optical and ergonomic capabiliy. With high NA objectives the OZOOM1020 can handle some of the same advanced image techniques that compound instrument users have long enjoyed.

Trinoculars have a moving prism assembly that directs light either to the eyepieces or towards the camera. Some trinoculars are either 100% of the light to the camera or 100% of the light to the eyepieces. The best modern trinoculars have at least three positions. These trinoculars allow either 100% to the eyepieces, 80% camera and 20% eyepieces or 100% to the camera.

BOOMSTANDS FOR THE ZOOM STEREO MICROSCOPES




Ask about these boom stand accessories.

Common boom stand applications include electronics repair, engraving, forensic document examination, fossil preparation, restoration and hobby activities. A typical example is in circuit board inspection/repair where some choose to view the specimen from a 45° angle and use an digital camera to display the image on a monitor.

Single boom stand height 430mm, length of boom arm 410mm, working distance with boom arm at top of stand 260mm
Double boom stand height 430mm, length of boom arm 500mm, working distance with boom arm at top of stand 260mm.
The double boom rods run on ball bearings for smooth 'X' translation.

Stand only. Recommended for use with the following item;
OXTL6445T Zoom stereo microscope, trinocular, head only

Boom stands do not allow for built-in lighting. We recommend OYK-B144T LED ringlight, dimmable, quadrant control, 144LEDs, which for macro-microscopy is the superior solution.

PORTABLE MONOCULAR MICROSCOPES
Simple but highly effective, quality microscopes which are most suitable for a large range of applications, including in the printing industry, mineralogy and geological field work (including logging of drill cores) industrial quality control, document examinations, textiles, IT, entomology and in many field applications.

Both models have a barrel diameter of 40mm and a length of 150mm to which is added the height of the acrylic skirt that maintains focus range and allows for (usually natural) illumination. The skirt adds 42mm to the length of the barrel of the M45 and 63mm to the M25.

Model No. indicates magnification, e.g. M25 = 25x magnification. Field of view is 2.5mm on the M45 and 4.5mm on the M25, however, when moving the eye across the ocular about twice that field is visible.

Measuring: These microscopes have a fine, built-in scale which is graduated to 0.1mm per division in both models. Wholemm and fraction of inches are also indicated. In photos and viewing, these scales are always visible. Both microscopes have an upper focus ring for the scale and a lower one for the subject. When the scale is not desired, it is possible to defocus the scale and refocus the image using the lower focus ring. Image quality is scarcely affected. If the scale is never used is may be removed by loosening three small grub screws and lifting off the eyepiece. Sitting on a spring metal ring is a small mounted glass disc - this contains the scale and has no lens function. The mounted disc can be removed and stored and the eyepiece assembly replaced for use without the measuring scale.
Please note: a stage micrometer is a perfect way to calibrate a microscope. A built in reticle scale as is provided in these microscopes is not very accurate, in fact we have found these to measure about six percent less. This measuring facility may be handy but for accurate work the scale needs to be calibrated.

Camera: A 350kb digital camera is available (see page O7). This simply replaces the rubber eye-cup. The camera connects via a UBS2 to a laptop (or PC) to make quality photo micrographs in the field possible.

PHOTO-MACROSCOPES, an introduction
Instruments featured below are photo-macroscopes. These are ideal for photography and viewing of three dimensional, microscopic specimens, providing sharp images at best possible depths of focus. Unlike a stereo microscope, there is only one image path and stereo vision is not possible. Therefore, viewing is usually on a large computer monitor, which is strain-free and a more comfortable experience.These photo-macroscopes give you great imaging possibilities on a budget.

We deliberately do not include systems with an integrated viewing screen and camera - such systems are destined to early obsolescence, and when one part of the system fails (most likely the camera or computer parts), the remainder may become useless. Our photo-macroscopes give the option to select the most appropriate camera system.

Superior resolution allows for higher magnification than most stereo microscopes, and, particularly when the macroscope is equipped with transmitted light, these instruments offer a bridge between non-specialised compound and reflected-light microscopes.

These three monocular microscopes are specially designed for still and video photography in the micro and macro range of live or fixed specimens using incident light. This unit includes a lens, stand and focusing system, additionally required is a Windows XP, Vista or 7 computer with an available USB 2.0 port, and a C-mount digital camera. They are formidable micro/macro recording systems, the highest quality, easy to operate and adaptable. They are most suitable for use in the semiconductor, photoelectric, image survey, biomedical fields and wherever excellent macrophotography is required.
