nd distortion compared to our staple SM series. This model is especially popular in the QC, repair and engraving industries thanks to its ease-of-use and reliability. This trinocular model has an additional port for mounting a camera, so you can record video or photos without replacing an eyepiece. With its wide zoom range and double-arm boom-stand, this model will become an indispensable instrument in any workshop or lab.
The advanced optical system in the ZM series microscope produces higher resolutions throughout its zoom range, with stunning contrast and color accuracy. The 0.67X-4.5X objective lenses offer excellent focus-depth and a large working-distance, with symmetrical zoom knobs to easily move through magnifications. 10X and 25X eyepieces are included, as well as 0.3X and 2X Barlow lenses to provide an expanded magnification range from 2X-225X, with high-eyepoint optics to accommodate glasses or goggles.
| Magnifications and Working-Distances | |||
| Objective | |||
| Eyepiece | Standard (100mm WD) | 0.3X Barlow (278mm WD) | 2X Barlow (38mm WD) |
| 10X | 6.7X-45X | 2X-13.5X | 13.4X-90X |
| 25X | 16.8X-112.5X | 5X-33.8X | 33.5X-225X |
Easy Adjustments for Any User
Dual ocular diopters can be adjusted to maintain consistent focus, greatly improving productivity. Sliding interpupillary adjusters ensure that each user can properly align the eyepieces for comfortable viewing.
A Dedicated Port for Imaging
The switched trinocular photo-port provides a dedicated mount for a camera. When the photo-port is switched open, all light from the left objective is diverted to the port to provide maximum brightness for the camera to guarantee the best quality images.
Heavy-duty, Multi-pivoting Support
The multi-pivoting, double-arm stand provides a stable, flexible support system. Use of a drop-down column allows the head to be positioned at virtually any angle. Ball-bearings provide smooth movement of the lateral arms, which can easily pivot the microscope out of the way when it is not needed. The heavy, steel base ensures the stability of the microscope, even when laden with attachments.
Monitor and capture photos and videos with the included high-resolution 20MP USB3.0 camera. The sensitive back-illuminated sensor is designed for improved low-light imaging, making it suitable for fluorescence and darkfield microscopy. Our professional software for Windows provides a wide assortment of capture and photo-editing functions including color correction, time-lapse capture, image stitching, and a full complement of measuring tools. A lite version of our software is available for Mac and Linux with essential functionality for capturing photos and videos.
Powerful 150W Illumination System with Fiber-optic Ring-light
This package includes a powerful 150W illuminator with a fiber-optic ring-light. The incandescent light-source projects ultra-bright, full-spectrum light which is channeled through the 35" (inches) fiber-optic light-guide which provides the smoothest ring of encompassing illumination. The flexible, heavy-duty metal-sheathed guide will hold up to heavy use in your workshop, factory, or lab without worry of crimping or breaking. The light-source is equipped with an active cooling system and an auto-shutoff circuit to avoid overheating in strenuous environments.
