ZEISS Axio Zoom V16 Fluorescence Stereo Zoom Microscope

The ZEISS Axio Zoom V16 motorized fluorescence stereo zoom microscope for biology combines a 16x zoom with a high numerical aperture of NA 0.25. This microscope provides superior brightness in large object fields. With the ZEISS Axio Zoom V16 fluorescence zoom microscope for large samples you can view complete model organisms in fluorescence contrast.

• Features: 
  • Bright Fluorescence in Large Fields. The Axio Zoom.V16 achieves a very high numerical aperture in the medium zoom range, providing superior fluorescence brightness in large object fields. With Plan-NEOFLUAR Z 2.3x you can achieve a numerical aperture of NA 0.5 in an object field of 1.5mm. Perform routine screenings as well as the most demanding multidimensional imaging applications with the Zeiss Axio Zoom.V16.
  • Intelligent Transmitted Light Over the Entire Zoom Range. In addition to brightfield, darkfield and oblique illumination, you get an increased contrast brightfield at the touch of a button. With the Best Mode button, the stereo zoom microscope Axio Zoom.V16 determines the actual optical state and optimizes transmitted light automatically. Use the Adjust control to fine-tune Best Mode more precisely to your application. Then simply save the setting and reload it for your next experiment with the touch of a button.
  • Optimized Zoom for Applications. The eZoom of Axio Zoom.V16 works with a motorized iris diaphragm coupled to the zoom. Simply select the best mode for your purpose.
    • Brightness Mode: Observe fluorescence images over the complete zoom range with the highest possible brightness.
    • Eyepiece Mode: This setting is ideal if you work mainly with ocular observation using conventional illumination. Zoom from large object fields with maximum depth of field to high magnifications with maximum resolution.
    • Camera Mode: Axio Zoom.V16 adapts to the performance of the camera. This provides an optimal relation between resolution and depth of field across the entire zoom range.
• Optical Sectioning: ApoTome.2 allows you to create optical sections of your fluorescent samples. With structured illumination, you know that only the focal plane appears in your image. ApoTome.2 recognizes the magnification and moves the appropriate grid into the beampath. The system then calculates your optical section from three images with different grid positions. It is a reliable way to prevent scattered out-of-focus light, even in thicker specimens. This results in images with high contrast in the best possible resolution. ApoTome.2 is the perfect option for your stereo zoom microscope to create simply brilliant optical sections.
• Precision: The zoom body is the core of stereo and zoom microscopes. When zooming, lenses have to be positioned precisely. Until now, a metal component milled with great care would determine the exactness of this movement, and with it the optical quality of your microscope. eZoom replaces the mechanical curve with an electronic one. Stepping motors position the moveable lenses precisely and take the tolerances of the individual lenses into account. Each zoom body describes its own zoom curve and captures visibly more details. eZoom follows the base line for image sharpness over the magnification range with a doubled precision, compared to a mechanical zoom body.
