OMAX Digital Microscopes integrate advanced digital-imaging with precision optical-microscopy. Digital-integration promotes uniformity, and presents a simplified method for setting up and using microscopes. A simple USB connection allows you to view real-time images on your PC. The integrated camera can be used for monitoring and recording still images and video. The included Windows software features a wide range of measurement and editing tools, lending itself perfectly to the classroom or clinic with its ability to record, measure, and comment.
OMAX provides a large range of solutions for education, research, and industry. Building on industry standards, we provide a full range of accessories to suit your needs.
The OMAX MD827S30 brings photomicrography to the classroom or clinic. This hybrid design combines all of the fundamental functionality needed in optical microscopy with 3MP integrated digital imaging.
The MD827 series microscope uses a binocular viewing head. To customize the microscope to your viewing comfort, the eyepiece spacing can be easily adjusted using a simple sliding mechanism. Diopters are available on each ocular tube to fine-tune the eyepieces, and the ocular tubes are angled at 45° to accommodate sitting or standing. Various eyepieces can be used to increase the overall optical magnification without changing the camera's magnification.
The objective turret provides instant access to 4 magnification levels to easily focus in on minute details from 40X to 1000X. For traditional viewing, additional 20X eyepieces extend the maximum magnification to 2000X, and provides 8 distinct levels of magnification. The high-quality lenses are achromatically corrected to improve resolution and color accuracy.
The 2-layer mechanical stage provides smooth and precise movement for examination of specimen slides. The stage's low-position controls are conveniently placed near the coaxial focus knobs for a streamlined workflow. The halogen sub-stage lighting provides warm, 100% CRI illumination for excellent color-rendering and reduced eye-fatigue during long periods of observation. Additionally, specialized condensers are available for advanced techniques, such as darkfield and phase-contrast.
A dry darkfield condenser is included for darkfield observation using the 40X objective lens or lower. With a 0.9 numerical aperture, the condenser works with non-immersion lenses. Darkfield observation will provide contrast in otherwise indistinguishable objects by highlighting changes in refractive index. 100 blank slides and cover slips are also included. These pre-cleaned slides can be used for dry-mount or wet-mount with the included cover slips.
