Optional equipment

Objectives	UPLSAPO60xO*1 NA1.35 (For oil immersion) (26x to 120x with optical zoom) LCACHN40xPHP*2 NA0.55 (For plastic vessel) (17x to 80x with optical zoom)

*1 Not available for phase contrast, selection of start position, macro image framing, automatic focus and stitching images.

*2 Not available for ultra violet fluorescence and automatic focus.

*3 In some cases, when using phase contrast to observe your specimen in plastic vessels whose bottom thickness is less than 1mm (<1mm), a ghost image of the phase ring may appear. It is suggested to use plastic vessels whose bottom thickness is 1mm or greater to avoid this ghost image. Please note that the ghost image is only apparent with the Macro objective and phase contrast observation method.

<Plastic vessels whose bottom thicknesses are confirmed by OLYMPUS Corp. to be 1mm or greater (August 2009)>
