Relief contrast observations

High-resolution relief contrast with N.A.0.5: thick specimens like egg cells can be observed in three dimensions

Olympus' relief contrast maintains the same shadow direction even if the magnification is changed.

The two-stage exchange slider uses a common aperture for 20X and 40X magnifications, so exchange between 10X/20X and 10X/40X is performed quickly. The same feature enables easy optical adjustment: by simply using the lever, the contrast can be changed while centering is being performed.

Vertical installation avoids interference with manipulators

Vertical installation helps the user to avoid accidentally touching the manipulators while operating the slider or making optical adjustments.

Fluorescence observations

Fluorescence observation system with tree-position allows the use of U excitation.

Adopted renowned UIS optics, this system provides

B and G excitations and optionally U excitation as well. All three can be provided simultaneously, with quick, easy exchange among them. Many different UIS filters can also be installed, according to requirements, enabling this system to meet a wide range of fluorescence observations needs.

Also, thanks to newly developed fluorescent illuminator, which secured UV transmission rate, and a variety of

UIS fluorescent objectives, clear and high contrast fluorescent images are provided.
