Stereo Microscopes – Life Science

SZ61/SZ51 | Zoom Stereomicroscope

The Olympus SZ61 and SZ51 stereo microscopes help you remain comfortable with eyepieces that reduce eyestrain, a universal LED stand that provides easy access to your sample, and a Greenough optical system that delivers excellent flatness. High color fidelity and antistatic materials and coatings make these microscopes suitable for routine or advanced life science applications.

Olympus SZ61/SZ51 overview

• LED Illumination: 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.
• Electrostatic Discharge Protection: The main body and major accessories can quickly eliminate static electricity with the use of antistatic materials and coatings. This prevents a specimen under observation from electrostatic damage.
• Choice of High-Performance Bodies: The SZ61 and SZ51 zoom bodies provides 2 different magnification ranges, and each one is ergonomically designed with a 45-degree inclination tube as the standard model. For special applications where the zoom body has to be tilted of use with other equipment of mounting on a universal stand, the built-in models with 60-degree inclination tube are available. For documentation purpose, a trinocular model is available for the quick and easy attachment of digital cameras.

Compact stereo microscope with high-quality optics

• Greenough Optical System: The 10-degree angle of convergence in the Greenough optical system secures excellent image flatness with large depth of field. The careful selection of lens surface coatings and glass materials in the entire optical system makes it possible to observe and document specimens in their original, authentic colors. The V-shape optical path achieves a slim zoom body – suitable for integration into other equipment or standalone use.
• Wide Zoom Ratio: The SZ61’s magnification range extends from 6.7x to 45x (using 10x eyepieces), with a wide zoom ratio of 6.7:1, enabling smooth, macro-to-micro zooming that speeds routine workflows. The SZ51 provides the magnification rage of 8x to 40x (using 10x eyepieces), with a wide zoom ratio of 5:1.
• Viewing: The suitable inward angle allows just the right combination of high level flatness and depth of focus for 3D viewing. Even a specimen with significant depth can be brought into focus from top to bottom for faster inspection.

SZX7 | Stereo Microscope System

The Evident SZX7 stereo microscope’s Galilean optical system offers excellent image quality, especially when using a digital microscope camera. The stereomicroscope system is suitable for life science imaging applications with high color fidelity optics, a 7:1 zoom ratio, and a universal LED stand.

SZX7 Stereomicroscope System overview

• Choice of High-Performance Objectives: 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.
• Comfortable LED Illumination Base: 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.

Cost-efficient stereo microscope with system modularity

• Galilean Optical System: 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.
• Wide 7:1 Zoom Ratio: 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.

MVX10 | Macro Fluorescence Imaging System

Designed for high fluorescence efficiency, the Olympus MVX10 macro fluorescence imaging system offers flexibility for researchers interested in the impact of gene expression and protein function at the cellular level or within whole tissues, organs, and organisms.

Olympus MVX10 overview

• Innovative Single-Zoom Bright Macro Fluorescence: The MVX10 MacroView, employs a single-zoom optical path with a large diameter, which is optimized to collect light with revolutionary efficiency and resolution at all magnifications. From fluorescent observation of whole organisms, such as zebrafish, at low magnification to the detailed observation of gene expression at the cellular level at high magnification, the MVX10 features a unique pupil division mechanism in the light-path to mimic the effect of a stereo microscope.
• Seamless Observation from 4x to 125x: With the parfocal objectives and two-position revolving nosepiece, switching between objectives is very quick and easy, requiring little refocusing. Therefore, with the 0.63x and 2x objectives, the uninterrupted magnification range is 4x to 125x (eye observation with 10x eyepieces). This in combination with the 2x magnification change slider, increases effective magnification to 250X.
• Contribution to Work Efficiency: This makes fluorescence screening and verification of gene expression especially efficient, improves speed and precision, reduces judgment errors, and eliminates the need to switch back and forth between a stereomicroscope and inverted microscope.

Choice of suitable contrast and observation method

• SZX2-ILLTQ/SZX2-ILLTS: With a slim design 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. New LED illumination base SZX2-ILLTQ four-position turret (SZX2-ILLTS one –position) 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. This makes the MVX10 a flexible microscope for various samples and observation tasks. Another advantage of LED illumination is a cooler base surface, which is suitable for long duration manipulation of live specimens. Power consumption is lower than a conventional 30W halogen light source. A life cycle of over 60,000 hours significantly reduces operation costs.
• SZX2-STL: The SZX2-STL stand a stable, broad working space for observing large specimens. Attaching the Motorized Focus Unit (SZX2-FOA) creates a more comfortable work environment.
