The B590 is a mid-level binocular compound microscope with scalable features to accommodate growing labs and classrooms. The heavy-duty design will hold up to years of hard use, and is supported by a large set of accessories including epi-fluorescence, phase-contrast and darkfield kits. This instrument is ideal for scaling laboratories and scholastic demonstrations.
The microscope's binocular head uses a Siedentopf interpupillary adjuster which allows any user to easily align the oculars for comfortable viewing. For users with astigmatism or asymmetrical vision, the right ocular has dioptric adjustment to fine-tune focus. The ocular tubes are set to a 30° incline, and can be rotated 360° to accommodate viewing from various positions.
The objective turret provides instant access to 4 magnification levels to easily focus in on minute details from 40X to 1000X. Additional 16X eyepieces expand the maximum magnification to 1600X with 8 unique levels. This covers magnifications needed for studying hair follicles, cells, and bacteria. The turret's reversed orientation provides more working room above the stage. These high-quality lenses are achromatically corrected to improve resolution and color accuracy.
The 2-layer mechanical stage provides smooth and precise movement for examination of specimen slides. The stage's low-position controls are conveniently placed near the coaxial focus knobs for a streamlined workflow. Examining specimen slides is intuitive and precise for users at any skill level.
Halogen sub-stage lighting provides bright illumination with excellent color rendering. The warm lighting is better suited for prolonged use, causing less eyestrain than LED or fluorescent lighting. The Abbe light condenser has a high 1.25 numerical aperture for oil-immersion, and an iris diaphragm to optimize contrast and depth-of-field. A swing-out filter holder can be used to mount a color filter for band-isolation or to change the light's hue. The condenser holder uses rack-and-pinion movement for precise height adjustment.
Monitor and capture photos and videos with the included 3MP digital eyepiece camera. The compact, lightweight camera can be used in place of an eyepiece to watch live images, and to record photos or videos on your computer. This ability to view microscopic images on your computer reduces eye-strain, and allows groups of people to view images at the same time. Professional software for Windows provides a wide assortment of capture and photo-editing functions including color correction, time-lapse capture, image stitching, and a full complement of measuring tools. A lite version of software is available for Mac and Linux with essential functionality for capturing photos and videos.
