The H800 is designed specifically for photomicrography, providing 0.7X-5X zoom magnification and a C-mount interface for most professional microscope cameras. While stereo microscopes are the preferred choice for low-magnification work like micro-soldering and dissection, the stereo lens design is not optimal for producing accurate photos or videos due to off-axis, angular distortion and keystoning. This single-lens microscope provides the same magnification range, but without the distortion.
The 0.7X-5X zoom objective lens produces exceptionally sharp images throughout the entire range. The C-mount camera interface is height-adjustable, allowing precise parfocal adjustments to keep the lens in focus throughout the zoom range. The microscope has an integrated 0.4X reduction element optimized for cameras using 1/2" format sensors, providing more field-of-view.
The articulating support system can be used to position the microscope over a large area, and over a large range of heights. The support system uses a heavy-duty clamp which should be mounted to a sturdy work surface up to 2" thick. A mounting joint can be vertically positioned along the integrated pillar to set the default height. The spring-tensioned arm sections can be individually locked to set a working height, while pivoting joints move freely to allow the microscope to be swung into place when needed. This kind of flexibility is ideal for inspecting large materials and artwork, or to view multiple specimens.
This model includes a 96-LED ring-light to provide bright, even lighting. Mounted on the microscope, the light follows the lens so the subject is always illuminated. The light intensity is controlled by a wired, remote power module which keeps control at your fingertips.
This microscope comes with a 1080p multifunction camera which can be used to record directly while streaming images to a monitor or TV, or with a computer. Connected to an HDMI monitor or TV, 1080p live video can be viewed at a super-smooth 60fps, while recording directly to a Secure Digital card at 25fps. The included USB mouse allows you to make adjustments in the internal software for settings such as white-balance and exposure. Optionally, a companion HDMI monitor can be attached directly to the camera, creating a self-sufficient turnkey system.
As an alternative solution, connect the camera to a computer via USB for remote software control. The included Windows software offers image-development and measurement tools, as well as advanced compositing features such as image-stitching and extended-depth-of-focus. With the ability to calibrate scales at multiple magnifications, the software can be used for multi-level inspection. For Mac and Linux, there is a lite version of the software which can capture video and still images, and includes limited processing features.
