AmScope SE305R-PZ Forward Binocular Stereo Microscope, WF10x and WF20x Eyepieces, 10X-60X Magnification, 1X and 3X Objectives, Upper and Lower Halogen Light Source, Pillar Stand, 120V

AmScope SE305R-PZ is a forward binocular stereo microscope offering 10X-20X-30X-60X magnification settings. It comes with sturdy all-metal pillar stand and a versatile illumination system that provides both incident (top) lighting and transmitted (bottom) lighting. You can choose between incident illumination shining down onto the object or transmitted illumination through the frosted stage plate. The first is used for the observation of three-dimensional objects and the second for the observation of slides. This microscope offers high resolution and good depth within a broad field of view. It gives sharp clear stereo images. Its 45 degree inclined binocular head ensures an easy observation and rubber eye-guards provide further comfort. It comes with first-class quality and affordable price. It is brand new in factory-sealed box.

AmScope SE305R-PZ is great for many applications. It can be used in geology, forestry, archaeology, agriculture, biology and is appropriate for educational purposes in hospitals and schools. It is great for the exploration of the world of surface details and fine structures of various materials like wood, metal, solder, semiconductor and stone. It is perfect for the examination of insects, plants, rocks, stamps, jewel, soldered points, microelectronic components or virtually any three dimensional objects. This scope is an ideal tool for watchmaker, jeweler, engraver, dies-maker, philatelist, coin collector (not able to view a whole coin), students, and etc.

AmScope SE305R-PZ comes with optical glass elements and solid metal body. Glass optical system ensure sharp clear quality of microscopy images. The metal construct makes it possible for the microscope to last more than ten years that just enough to cover all the way from elementary to high school. Metal body is also more sturdy at high magnification level, and minor turbulence will not distort the image.

Microscopes are instruments used to enhance 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, rather than looking through a lens. Microscopes can have monocular (one), binocular (two), or trinocular (three) eyepieces, with varying magnification abilities. Magnification ability refers to the size of an image. Resolution, also known as resolvant power, refers to the clarity of the image. The interaction between field of view (FOV), numerical aperture (NA), and working distance (WD) determines resolution. Microscopes can control magnification through a fixed focus, or through a range of adjustments. They can also utilize LED, fluorescent, and mirror light sources to help control viewing capabilities. Microscopes are widely used in education, lab research, biology, metallurgy, engineering, chemistry, manufacturing, and in the medical, forensic science, and veterinary industries. AmScope has been manufacturing microscopy equipment and accessories since 1996, headquartering in Irvine, CA.
