AmScope T700D-8M Digital Professional Trinocular Compound Microscope, 40X-2500X Magnification, PL10x, WH20x, and WH25x Super-Widefield Eyepieces, Quintuple Nosepiece with 5 Infinity Plan Objectives, Brightfield, Kohler Condenser, Double-Layer Mechanical Stage, Includes 8MP Camera with Reduction Lens and Software

The AmScope T700D-8M digital compound trinocular microscope has a Siedentopf binocular mount with interchangeable pairs of 10x plan, 20x super-widefield, and 25x super-widefield eyepieces, a reverse-mounted quintuple nosepiece with five DIN plan objectives, Brightfield halogen illumination, and a double-layer mechanical stage with a stage stop to give protection to slides and objectives from damage. The 8MP camera has a CMOS color sensor, a reduction lens, image capture and editing software, and USB 2.0 output to capture or display still or video images on a pc or projector. The trinocular head has a vertical camera mount and a Siedentopf binocular mount with interchangeable pairs of PL10x, WH20x, and WH25x eyepieces, 55 to 75mm Siedentopf interpupillary adjustment, a fixed 30-degree vertical inclination to scale back eye and neck strain, and a 360-degree rotation capability to offer a more comprehensive view and enable sharing. Dioptric adjustment contains individual eye-strength differences. The vertical trinocular port accepts a camera with a 23mm or C-Mount adapter. The mechanical tube length is 6-5/16″ (160mm). The reverse-mounted revolving nosepiece has 4x, 10x, 20x, 40xS, and 100xS (oil) DIN infinity plan objectives that provide a longer working distance and improved Center of attention over all of the range of the viewing field. The 40xS objective is spring loaded to forestall slide damage when focusing. The 100xS spring-loaded oil-immersion objective uses oil between the specimen and the objective lens to offer increased resolution over a regular objective. A digital compound microscope is used for inspection and dissection of specimens when two-dimensional images are desired, and where image capture, detailed records, or documentation is required.

The 8MP digital camera has a CMOS color sensor for displaying still microscopy images and streaming live videos to a pc or projector. The camera has 40x magnification and a 0.5x reduction lens that ensures that the display has a equivalent field of view as the microscope eyepiece. The camera will also be mounted in a C-Mount or any 23mm eye tube. The camera includes image capture and editing software that provides still image and live video capture and editing capability, including measurement functions. The software supports JPG, TIF, GIF, PSD, WMF, and BMP file formats and is compatible with Windows XP, Vista, 7, and 8; Mac OS X; and Linux. Camera drivers are compatible with Windows XP, Vista, 7, and 8; Mac OS X; and Linux. The software includes Windows APIs for native C/C++, C#, DirectShow, Twain, and LabVIEW that enable custom application development. The camera has a USB 2.0 data port (cable included).

The microscope has Brightfield (BF) illumination which permits the specimen to take in light, resulting in a dark image on a light background. Halogen light source provides bright light in a concentrated path, and a Kohler condenser focuses and centers the light path the use of two iris diaphragms, providing optimum contrast and resolution. The graduated double-layer mechanical stage, with 1mm stage divisions, locks the slide into place and provides precise slide manipulation along the X- and Y-axis to permit coordinates to be recorded, enabling the viewer to go back to a specific location at the slide. A stage stop prevents the stage or specimen from coming into contact with the objectives. The stage is 6.9 x 5.7 inches (175 x 145mm), has a 1-3/16″ focusing range, and a traveling range of 2-3/4 x 2 inches (70 x 50mm). Graduated coaxial coarse and fine Center of attention has a focusing range of 1-3/16″ (30mm) and fine-Center of attention divisions of 0.002mm (0.0000787″) that enable measurements to be taken. Center of attention knob tension keep watch over prevents the stage from drifting out of Center of attention. The cast-alloy enamel-coated body is durable and resistant to stains and corrosion.

Microscopes are instruments used to make stronger the resolution of an object or image. Types include compound, stereo, or digital. Compound microscopes use a compound optical system with an objective lens and an eyepiece. Stereo microscopes show object depth in a three-dimensional image. Digital microscopes are used to display an image on a monitor, reasonably than taking a look through a lens. Microscopes may have monocular (one), binocular (two), or trinocular (three) eyepieces, with varying magnification abilities. Magnification ability refers back to the size of an image. Resolution, often referred to as resolvant power, refers back to the clarity of the picture. The interaction between field of view (FOV), numerical aperture (NA), and working distance (WD) determines resolution. Microscopes can keep watch over magnification through a fixed Center of attention, or through a range of adjustments. They may be able to also utilize LED, fluorescent, and mirror light sources to assist keep watch over viewing capabilities. Microscopes are widely utilized in education, lab research, biology, metallurgy, engineering, chemistry, manufacturing, and within the medical, forensic science, and veterinary industries.

United Scope manufactures microscopy equipment and accessories under the brand name AmScope. The company, founded in 1996, is headquartered in Irvine, CA.
