The OMAX MD82EZ10 provides all of the essential functionality needed in the classroom or lab for common microscopy applications. The digitally-integrated head offers an amazing amount of flexibility, allowing for simultaneous viewing through the eyepieces and on a computer. A professional software platform for Windows is provided to capture photos and video, with editing tools to optimize images, and aid in analysis. The imaging process is further enhanced by achromatic color-corrected optics which provide sharp, clear images over a wide range of magnifications. Coaxial focus, and mechanical stage-movements provide precision and ease.The MD82E series microscope uses a binocular viewing head. To customize the microscope to your viewing comfort, the eyepiece spacing can be easily adjusted using a simple sliding mechanism. Diopters are available on each ocular tube to fine-tune the eyepieces, and the ocular tubes are angled at 45° to accommodate sitting or standing. Various eyepieces can be used to increase the overall optical magnification without changing the camera’s magnification.The objective turret provides instant access to 4 magnification levels to easily focus in on minute details from 40X to 1000X. For traditional viewing, additional 25X eyepieces extend the maximum magnification to 2500X, and provide 6 distinct levels of magnification. The 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. Variable-intensity LED lighting offers bright, daylight-balanced illumination to produce high-contrast, color-correct images.This kit includes The World of the Microscope. This beautifully-illustrated book will help guide first-time users through the history of microscopes, and how to perform some experiments right at home. 100 blank slides and cover slips are also included for mounting specimens, as well as lens tissues for cleaning delicate components.
