Light microscope
Olympus
BX51

Using reflected or transmitted light, this microscope produces excellent images which may be recorded using our Olympus digital camera. We have objectives for longer working distances, for samples under a coverslip or without a coverslip. The stage rotates, which is useful when using the crossed polarization mode i.e. for the observation of geological thin sections.

50x-400x magnification. First order red accessory plate.
