AmScope IN480TC-FL-BWF Digital Long Working-Distance Inverted Fluorescence Trinocular Microscope, 40x-1500x, WH10x Plan and WH25x Super-Widefield Eyepieces, Brightfield and Phase-Contrast Objectives, 30W Halogen Illumination, 0.3 NA Kohler Condenser, Mechanical Stage, 90V-240V, Includes 1.4MP Peltier-Cooled Fluorescence Video Camera and Software

The AmScope IN480TC-FL-BWF digital inverted epifluorescence trinocular microscope has interchangeable pairs of 10x22mm and WH25x10mm plan high-eyepoint super-widefield eyepieces, an under-mounted quintuple nosepiece, eight DIN long working-distance infinity plan objectives, fluorescence 100W mercury lamp and Brightfield 30W halogen illumination, a 0.3 NA Kohler condenser with iris diaphragm, and a double-layer mechanical stage with a stage stop to protect slides and objectives from damage. The 1.4MP Peltier-cooled fluorescence camera has a CMOS color sensor, image capture and editing software, and USB 2.0 output to capture or display still or video images on a computer or projector. The microscope has a color-corrected infinity optical system (CCIS) that provides color correction and improved focus of the intermediate image across the entire focal plane. The trinocular head has a Siedentopf binocular mount with 50 to 76mm interpupillary adjustment and a fixed 45-degree vertical inclination to reduce eye and neck strain. A Siedentopf binocular head enables the viewer to change the interpupillary distance without changing the tube length, eliminating the need to refocus the image. Anti-mold coatings protect the microscope in high-humidity environments. The microscope includes interchangeable pairs of high-eyepoint super-widefield WH10x22mm plan and WH25x10mm eyepieces. Plan eyepieces provide improved focus over the entire field of view (FOV). High-eyepoint eyepieces ease viewing for viewers who wear glasses. Dioptric adjustment accommodates individual eye-strength differences. The vertical trinocular port accepts a 23mm or C-Mount camera. The under-mounted quintuple nosepiece accepts up to five 20mm objectives at a time. The microscope includes five Brightfield long working-distance infinity plan objectives (4x, 10x, 20x, 40x, and 60x) and three phase-contrast long working-distance infinity plan objectives (10x, 20x, and 40x). Long working-distance plan objectives provide improved focus over the entire range of the viewing field and a longer working distance that is required when viewing specimens in dishes and large containers. Phase-contrast provides high contrast and visibility without the use of stains, allowing specimens to be observed in their natural state without being killed or fixed. An inverted microscope has its light source above the stage pointing downward and the objectives and turret below the stage pointing upward. It is most often used for observing organisms in a large container, such as a well plate or petri dish. It can also be used when specimens require manipulation, or in metallurgical applications. A digital fluorescence microscope is used in biological and metallurgical research and in industrial inspection applications to observe details illuminated by ultraviolet light, and where image capture, detailed records, or documentation is required. The included AmScope MT5800-CCD 1.4MP Peltier-cooled fluorescence camera has a 2/3″ Sony black and white CCD sensor for displaying still microscopy images and streaming live videos to a computer monitor or digital TV. The camera is suitable for low-light applications, including fluorescence and darkfield microscopy. The camera can be mounted in any standard C-Mount. The Peltier-cooled sensor combined with black and white background provides low-noise fluorescence image acquisition. The sensor has a progressive scan mode, an RGB Bayer pattern filter, and a 1300mV G-sensitivity. The camera includes image capture and editing software that provides still image and live video capture and editing capability, including measurement functions. User-defined parameters include brightness, gain, RGB, and automatic or manual white balance and exposure selection. Exposure duration has a range of 0.1 to 60 minutes. The software supports JPG, TIFF, GIF, PSD, WMF, and BMP file formats and is compatible with Windows XP, Vista, 7, and 8. The camera supports Twain, DirectShow, Amcap,
