Summary of Contents for Olympus SZX16

  • Page 1 RESEARCH STEREOMICROSCOPE SYSTEM...
  • Page 2 Olympus expertise raises stereomicroscopes to a new level with the world’s highest zoom ratio* and maximum numerical aperture (NA). Unmatched image clarity and a highly flexible optical system assure operational ease. The SZX2 Research Stereomicroscope System reveals a new world, far beyond expectations.
  • Page 3 P03-P08 A new dimension in image clarity Unparalleled sharp viewing is the result of a multi-wavelength, astigmatism- free design that absolutely minimizes aberration and the world's highest NA. From low to high magnification, unprecedented bright and even fluorescence observation is achieved. P09-P10 Comfortable operability Long working distance (WD) and high NA...
  • Page 4 A new dimension in image clarity Olympus’ new SDF objective lenses provide the highest NA with 900lp/mm resolution. Optimum specimen viewing from large field overview to microstructure, along with instant zoom function to select observation points, is assured.
  • Page 5 From low to high magnification, several different observation tasks are available on one microscope. The SZX16 offers optical performance at the highest global standard. SDF objective lenses with the highest available NA enable microstructural observation that could not be achieved before. And with the world’s highest zoom range of 7.0x-115x, this all-in-one microscope answers a wide range of needs...
  • Page 6 A new dimension in image clarity Unprecedented depth and sharp images dramatically enhance efficiency for a variety of tasks including specimen manipulation.
  • Page 7 Obtaining a lucid visual perspective, such as a clear feel for dimension, is essential for manipulation of thick specimens like eggs or embryos. The latest proprietary SZX16 delivers the images needed for observation of such specimens. 3D observation images from surface to interior are also particularly effective in the dissection and manipulation of live specimens.
  • Page 8 A new dimension in image clarity From low to high magnification, exceptionally bright and even fluorescence is assured for efficient screening.
  • Page 9 Bright fluorescence observation is essential in recent biological and medical research. Observation of weak fluorescence at low magnification under stereomicroscope has especially been a problem. However, the SZX16 enables even and overwhelmingly bright fluorescence observation from low to high magnifications.
  • Page 10 Comfortable operability Effective combination of long WD and high NA. Development of an ergonomic design. Design focus on creating a wide working space and comfort.
  • Page 11 Slim LED transmitted light illumination base (SZX2-ILLT) With a slim design of 41mm — approximately half that of conventional models — the SZX16 transmitted light illumination base has a lower height to enable a low eyepoint and easy access to base-mounted samples during observation and operation.
  • Page 12 Ergonomic design for working ease Users can work at ease, regardless of height. Ergonomic design reduces fatigue for maximum comfort.
  • Page 13 Ergonomic design for working ease Optimal convergence angle plus tilting trinocular tube reduces fatigue. The SZX2 brings greater working comfort with an observation tube featuring a convergence angle that relieves eyestrain. Moreover, the tilting trinocular tube and slim transmitted light illumination base enable natural posture for increased work efficiency during observation and manipulation tasks of long duration.
  • Page 14 Digital imaging From brightfield to fluorescence observation, several different specimens can be viewed at a high resolution recognized as leading the digital imaging world.
  • Page 15 Digital imaging Microscope digital camera that reproduces true-to-life images Each microscope digital camera in the SZX2 lineup captures images at high resolution. Olympus stereomicroscopes and digital cameras contribute to cutting-edge research in biology and medicine. The high-performance Digital Camera (DP71)

  • Page 18 A zoom ratio of 1:10 is suitable for operations like specimen selection or dissection. SZX10 provides wide viewing and assures fewer oversights while relieving fatigue. Choose from a wide range of accessories to suit your sample needs.
  • Page 19 Distortion-free design provides accurate observation of images Distortion-free design that has been constantly improved by Olympus over the years minimizes embossment of image plane and provides accurate images. Maximum depth of field from the finest built-in AS zoom body Closing the aperture increases the depth of field.
