Levenhuk D870T 8M Digital Trinocular Microscope
Levenhuk D870T 8M Digital Trinocular Microscope
Levenhuk D870T 8M Digital Trinocular Microscope is a wonderful digital microscope that will find its use in various fields. It is perfect for medical and biological research at high magnifications, but it may also find its application in forensics and jewelry studies; or even used by collectors of oddities and curios. The microscope’s powerful 8Mpx digital camera extends its capabilities even further: with it you can study objects directly on your PC monitor and save the most interesting images for your collection or for future use.
This reliable microscope does not require any specific skills to set up and use. All you need is to turn on the camera, place a slide on the stage, focus the view and you’re all set! If you have any trouble with any aspects, Levenhuk D870T comes with a comprehensive manual that will surely have your answer. The installation CD - also included in the kit - contains all the software and drivers required by the digital camera.
Levenhuk D870T yields magnifications from 40x to 2000x and comes with four objective lenses WF: 4x, 10x, 40x and 100x - as well as pairs of PLAN WF10x and PLAN WF20x eyepieces with wide FOV.
Any professional researcher who spends hours every day studying objects under a microscope is sure to appreciate the binocular setup of the eyepieces, which reduces stress on your eyes. The trinocular head may be rotated 360 degrees for group research or studies.
The kit includes everything you will need to start working. The digital camera comes with an installation CD that contains the necessary software and drivers. Levenhuk D870T and its camera are compatible with Windows, Linux and Mac OS.
Features
The Levenhuk 870T trinocular microscope is fitted with a dark field microscope condenser that may be used once the Abbe condenser is raised to its highest position. A dark field microscope is best suited for studying blood and other biological samples that simply cannot be observed in bright field. Rotate the ring on the illuminator clockwise to switch to dark field observations, rotate it clockwise again to switch back to bright field observations.
About dark field observations
Upon leaving the condenser, most of the light rays that pass through a specimen without changing direction form a hollow cone. Since the objective lens is located within this cone, none of the rays are focused on the lens. Only a few light rays, which are condensed on the cover glass upon passing through a specimen, remain within the cone and may be focused on the lens, thus providing the image. We can only observe the bright parts of the object against a dark background since they have different refractive indices; and when observing large samples all we can see are the bright edges that disperse the light rays.
