A new dimension in image clarityA new dimension in image clarityNew standards in image clarity begin with a multi-wave length,astigmatism-free design.“Multi-wave length astigmatism-free”: a new design effectively eliminating image-deformingaberration and enabling remarkably sharp 3D imaging and dramatically enhanced specimenmanipulation. Also, with an apochromatic lens system that effectively reduces chromatic aberration,the latest proprietary SZX16 optical system provides sharp 3D observation images of variousspecimens.Unprecedented depth and sharp imagesdramatically enhance efficiency for a varietyof tasks including specimen manipulation. Sharp, detailed observation of specimensNewly designed SDF objective lenses keep astigmatism to aminimum. This effectively eliminates image deforming atpre- and post-focal plane and thus the depth of field isperceived as deeper than before. These design featuresenable stress-free use of forceps in the field of view duringlive sample selection and acquisition. SZX2 puts power intoaction for long-time observation. When these objectives arecombined with the newly developed transmitted lightillumination base, clear observation is even possible fortransparent specimens where contrast is low. Oversights arethus minimized for specimen selection, dissection, andmanipulation. Integration of apochromatic systemThe apochromatic system — integrated into observation tubes,zoom body, and objectives — eliminates chromatic aberrationthroughout the zoom range and ensure excellent image qualitywithout chromatic blur.Non astigmatismfreedesignAstigmatism effects greaterdeforming of the image atpre- and post-focal plane.SDF objectivelensesAs deforming of the image atpre- and post-focal plane iskept to a minimum, the eye canfocus around the point the userwants to observe. Thus depthof field is perceived as deeper.Imaging lensPre-focalplaneFocal planePost-focalplane• Depth of field seen in focal plane will vary according to individual differences in users’ vision.Optical performance with less fatigueA 360º view of balanced images is made possible byaccommodating vertical and horizontal parameters.Discomfort in the eyes and body, as well as stress fromlong-time observation or operation, is effectively eliminated.Previous model SZX16: new optics for equally easy handling of thick specimensObtaining a lucid visual perspective, such as a clear feel for dimension, is essential for manipulation of thick specimens likeeggs or embryos. The latest proprietary SZX16 delivers the images needed for observation of such specimens. 3D observationimages from surface to interior are also particularly effective in the dissection and manipulation of live specimens.

A new dimension in image clarityA new dimension in image clarityThe newly designed SDF objective lenses with high NA and Olympus’newly developed near-vertical reflected light illuminator willsignificantly improve signal intensity and support bright fluorescenceobservation.Bright fluorescence observation is essential in recent biological and medical research. Observation ofweak fluorescence at low magnification under a stereomicroscope has especially been a problem.However, the SZX16 enables even and overwhelmingly bright fluorescence observation from low tohigh magnifications. Exceptionally high NA for extraordinarily brightfluorescence observationFrom low to high magnification, exceptionallybright and even fluorescence is assured forefficient screening.The outstanding NA characteristics of SDF lensesdramatically improve fluorescence sensitivity. Furthermore,the newly designed near-vertical reflected light illuminator’sexcitation light paths are independent from the observationpaths, allowing for substantially improved excitation lightefficiency. These features provide far brighter fluorescenceobservation than conventional stereomicroscopes at allmagnifications. Transmitted light observation for verificationof specimen outline is possible even under reflected lightfluorescence observation. Even and seamless fluorescence observation fromlow to high magnificationThe near-vertical reflected light illuminator works in conjunctionwith the zoom function to provide even illumination over theentire magnification range. Motorized focus and zoom unitsmake for easy viewing using a hand switch.Fluorescence illumination onlyFluorescence and transmitted light illuminationFive-position turret withnine-filter selectionNine filter units, ranging from UV excitation toRFP, respond to applications using variousfluorescent dyes and protein.

A cooling fan prevents the illumination basesurface from overheating.Transmitted light illumination base (SZX2-ILLK)Offering outstanding cost-efficient performance, thisillumination base uses oblique illumination to provide highcontrastimages of transparent specimens. Slim 41mm LED illumination baseSlim LED transmitted light illumination base (SZX2-ILLT)With a slim design of 41mm — approximately half that of conventional models— the SZX16 transmitted light illumination base has a lower height to enablea low eyepoint and easy access to base-mounted samples during observationand operation. The LED four-position turret allows control of brightfield,oblique, and darkfield illumination with a simple turn. This makes the SZX16the all-in-one microscope for various samples and observation tasks. Anotheradvantage of LED illumination is keeping down the temperature of the basesurface, which is suitable for long-time manipulation of live specimens. Powerconsumption is about half that of a conventional 30W Halogen light source. Alife cycle of over 10,000 hours significantly reduces operation costs.
