Two quartet filter turrets are provided on the
microscope, and each filter turret has the φ25 mm
filters as shown below.
Each time you turn the turret 90 degrees, the next
filter enters the optical path. The display indicated on
the turret is the filter placed in the optical path. Select
the filter suitable for your purpose, and place it into
