8. When a low-power objective (below 4X) is used, the peripheral part of the field of view may be obscured. In this case,
use an ultralow-magnification condenser (U-ULC-2).
9. When the U-CFU (real time confocal unit) is used, it is required to set the exposure to a longer period than 1/30 sec.
using the manual exposure mode and control the brightness by engaging or disengaging ND filters.
10. When the specimen has large difference in brightness, particularly when the bright part of the specimen comes on
the upper part of the image, red and horizontal flare may be observed. It is noticeable when the AS is being closed.
The flare will get unnoticeable when the AS is being opened, though the flare may not be completely removed.
11. When a specimen with high reflectivity is observed with reflected light brightfield observation through the beam
splitter of the eyepiece/camera light path of a trinocular tube in combination with the U-TV0.5XC camera adapter, the
image in the area outside the CCD's effective image pickup area may be observed as vague ghosts in the peripheral
area of the visual field of eyepiece.
12. Flare may be produced during reflected light darkfield observation under overexposure To reduce the flare, use the
exposure correction function or reduce the exposure with manual exposure control.
13. During image acquisition with pixel shifting (4800 x 3600 or 2400 x 1800 pixels, 3CCD mode), the image may be
disturbed if the specimen is moved.
14. If the camera or microscope is vibrated during image acquisition with pixel shifting (4800 x 3600 or 2400 x 1800
pixels, 3CCD mode), the image will be disturbed. There are several causes for the vibration which are, the operation
of keyboard/mouse on the same table where microscope equipped with the camera is placed, vibration from the
instrument erquipped with air cooling fan, etc.
