SZX2 Stereo Microscope Series

Olympus, SZX2 more

The Olympus SZX16 research stereo microscope is specifically designed for advanced research and hosts a range of top-end functions, such as full fluorescence capability and sophisticated documentation. With a maximum numerical aperture (NA) of 0.3, producing a superior resolution of 900 line pairs/mm, this enhances the flexibility of the range to enable advanced techniques, including fluorescence and micromanipulation. A superior resolution and sensitivity at all magnification levels, enables SZX16 users to gather more detailed information from their samples than with any other stereo microscope.

The Olympus SZX16 provides the largest zoom ratio of any stereo microscope on the market – 16.4:1. This, combined with the high NA optics, produces the best clarity at whatever magnification is chosen, meaning users really can see more, particularly for fluorescence applications. Seamless zooming from 3.5x to 230x in one easy motion, combined with the most comprehensive range of parfocal objectives (0.5x, 1.0x, 1.6x & 2.0x), means the SZX16 can easily go from whole organism to cellular level and back with no major adjustments.

For micromanipulation applications the SZX16 offers enhanced 3D vision via an increased stereo effect. Also useful for such applications, the Olympus SZX2 range features an ultra-slim 40 mm base, which is the most ergonomic stage height available. This is possible due to the unique Olympus LED base system which enables fine control of transmitted illumination for bright and even images. Moreover, a novel carousel enables the easy selection and control of brightfield, darkfield and oblique illumination. The long-life LEDs provide even illumination and constant colour temperature at all intensity settings. LED’s are cold light sources, thus preventing heating of the stage and sample to greatly enhance flexibility for both research and advanced routine life science stereo microscopy.
