- SZX10
Operability is configured as a whole-system characteristic. Design is focused not only on WD and NA, but also on a stage that is slim.
SZX2 responds well to a variety of specimens and operations — from large specimens like mice to small ones like zebra fish, nematode or drosophilia eggs — because of the effective combination of high numerical aperture and wide working space. Moreover, the transmitted light illumination base is newly designed thin (only 41mm) to provide a wide working space and allow various users to work comfortably.

Wide working space and high NA
WD60mm and NA0.15 from the 1x objective
The 1x objective has a WD (60mm) that gives the user room to move and an NA
(0.15) that meets the needs of advanced research. Also available are 0.8x
objectives that have a longer WD of 81mm, which provides not only a larger
working space between objective lenses and sample but also a total magnification
of 5.6x-92x (using WHN10x-H).

2x objectives with ease of access and correction collar
The intelligent design allows easy access to objectives and delivers a high
NA of 0.3 for easy selection of specimens. An additional correction collar
can adjust image quality independently of the specimen — a first in
stereomicroscopes.
Ergonomic design for user-friendly base

Offering a wide working space in which users can place several Petri dishes, these illumination bases have an ergonomic, beveled design for users to work comfortably and naturally.
High-level transmitted light illumination
base (SZX2-ILLB)
This unit provides effective contrast from oblique illumination and easily
selected “High” and “low” contrast settings. Light
volume and color temperature are adjusted by means of built-in filters
(LBD/ND). It also has a cooling fan to prevent overheating of the base
surface.
Brightfield/darkfield transmitted light illumination
base (SZX2-ILLD)
This base enables darkfield observation under illumination twice as bright
as conventional models. Flat and thin specimens like brain tissue slices
are vividly displayed on a black background. A cooling fan prevents the
illumination base surface from overheating.
Transmitted light illumination base (SZX2-ILLK)
Offering outstanding cost-efficient performance, this illumination base uses
oblique illumination to provide highcontrast images of transparent specimens.
Slim 41mm LED illumination base

Slim LED transmitted light illumination base (SZX2-ILLT)
With a slim design of 41mm — approximately half that of conventional models — this transmitted light illumination base has a lower height to enable a low eyepoint and easy access to base-mounted samples during observation and operation. The world's first LED 4-position turret enables contrast adjustment between brightfield, oblique, and darkfield illumination with a simple turn.
This makes the SZX16 the all-in-one microscope for various samples and observation tasks. Another advantage of LED illumination is keeping down the temperature of the base surface, which is suitable for long-time manipulation of live specimens. Power consumption is about half that of a conventional 30W Halogen light source. A life cycle of over 10,000 hours significantly reduces operation costs.
