Device variants The Leica ES2, EZ4 and EZ4 D stereomicroscopes are precision optical instruments designed to render objects, object details and specimens from the fi elds of science and technology more easily visible through magnifi cation. The full apparatus consists of a Leica ES2, EZ4 or EZ4 D stereomicroscope according to choice, with the following integrated components: •...
Magnification display On the Leica ES2 and EZ4 models with fi xed eyepiece, the magnifi cation set can be read easily on the knob on the right. The additional magnifi cation provided by the eyepieces is already incorporated in the scale Tables optical data including object fi...
Illumination All Leica stereomicroscopes are equipped with an integrated incident and transmitted light illumination: Incident and transmitted light can be switched on separately and also together. After switching off, the LEDs remain lit for about another 4 sec. Leica ES2 illumination There is one On/Off switch each •...
Starting the Leica ES2 Adjust light: Place object (A) and depending on the object switch on incident or transmitted light with the switches on the side of the base (B). Incident light: for plastic, opaque objects Transmitted light: for transmitted light specimens or transparent objects Combination: for partly transparent objects...
Starting the Leica EZ4 If the illumination is not operated for 60 minutes, on the EZ4 models it switches off automatically. The illumination can be reactivated by pressing a button on the membrane keypad. Setting the eye distance Working without eyeglasses: Open out the eyecups Working with eyeglasses:...
Leica EZ4 with open tubes For replaceable eyepieces. The basic settings are the same as for the EZ4 models with fi xed eyepieces (see page 9). For diopter settings with adjustable eyepieces, see page 11 • Eyepieces replaceable, fi xed or adjustable: 10x/20, 16x/16 or 20x/12 •...
Diopter settings with adjustable eyepieces General notes • Only with the Leica EZ4 with freely selectable, adjustable eyepieces. • For adjusting the diopter for impaired vision and for measuring with graticules. Users with normal vision do not need adjustable eyepieces! An adjustable eyepiece is suffi cient for mild shortsightedness! •...
Settings for two adjustable eyepieces See also general information on page 10. Preparation: Place a fl at test object under the objective. Set the eye distance and illumination. Set the lowest magnifi cation. Set both eyepieces to 0. Use the focusing drive to set the eye distance to about 100 mm. Prepare for focusing Look into both eyepieces and focus the test object.
Graticules The graticules can only be inserted in adjustable eyepieces. The transparent graticules, which are insertable in the adjustable eyepieces, enable simple measurements to be made of objects that are being observed under the stereomicroscope. The following graticules and objective micrometers for calibrating may be ordered: Graticules: 10 mm Objective micrometers:...
Photographing with the Leica DC150 digital camera The Leica DC150 digital camera can ONLY be attached to the Leica EZ4 with open tubes; in this way, photographs can be taken through the tube. First insert the battery and memory card. For instructions on installing the software and using the camera see the instructions for use for the DC150 digital camera.
Leica EZ4 D device overview Do not insert anything except the SD card in the card slot – danger of short circuit and electric shock! Scope of delivery for the EZ4 D • Complete stereomicroscope with fixed 10x eyepieces and integrated 3.0 megapixel CMOS camera (see also page 5) •...
Photographing with the Leica EZ4 D: Four different modes of use General notes • For instructions on installing and using the accompanying software, see the CD ROM, which is also supplied. • As soon as the EZ4 D is connected to a power cable and the mains switch is turned on, the integrated camera is also ready for use. •...
Care and maintenance Dust and dirt will affect the quality of your results. Cover with the dust protection cover during breaks. Cover open tubes and eyepieces with dust caps. Remove dust with a pneumatic rubber bulb and a soft brush. Use only special optical cloths and pure alcohol to clean the eyepieces.
