Press Release Summary:
Model SZX 7 offers 7:1 zoom ratio, while Model SZ61 TRF features zoom range of 6.7x:1 and is video/digital camera ready. Built in C-mount is optically matched to zoom body and guarantees parfocal, sharp images when camera is attached. Models SZ51/61 have zoom ranges of 5:1 and 6.7:1 respectively. Zoom bodies of Models SZ5160/SZ6160 are suited for OEM applications due to 60° viewing angle. ESD coatings and lead-free glass are standard on all microscopes.
Original Press Release:
New Olympus Stereo Microscopes Enter the Comfort Zone
Olympus has introduced a range of six entirely new stereo microscope models representing the cutting edge in 3-dimensional optical imaging and mechanical design.
The goal - to provide customers with comfortable viewing and distortion-free images of exceptional clarity.
Comfort is often perceived as simply the ergonomic arrangement of levers and controls, 'Comfort' in an optical sense is perhaps the most important concern to the user who demands imaging excellence during prolonged viewing especially in assembly and inspection applications. The elimination of eyestrain and ease of viewing have therefore been cornerstones of the new SZ ranges design philosophy.
Magnification ranges of 1.6x to 335x - offer exceptional performance in this market segment.
o SZX 7 offers the largest 7:1 zoom ratio in it's class, extending the magnification range available to the user without the need to change a lens
o SZ61 TRF with a zoom range of 6.7x:1 is video/digital camera ready. The built in c-mount is optically matched to the zoom body and guarantees parfocal, sharp images with a camera is attached. A simple adapter makes attachment of Olympus CAMEDIA cameras an easy, practical and cost efficient means of obtaining digital images, even for the professional user
o SZ51/61 have zoom ranges of 5:1 and 6.7:1 respectively and are affordably priced yet offer the highest resolving power in their price range
o SZ5160/SZ6160 microscope zoom bodies are ideal for OEM applications due to their 60 degree viewing angle and very compact (objective to eye) design
o All zoom bodies incorporate the latest aberration and distortion-free optics setting new standards in optical quality
In addition to optical perfection, comfort and safety are equally important to microscope users and, with this in mind:
o A new high eye-point design allows users to see through the oculars with a large degree of head freedom to reduce neck fatigue.
o The new optical bodies have their zoom controls placed 'up front' for ease of operation.
o Electro Static Discharge (ESD) coatings and lead free glass are now standard features across the range, ensuring safety and ecologically friendly practices used during manufacture.
o New curved ultra-slim stands with contoured base plates provide easy specimen access while reducing stress and strain to hands and arms.
o LED illuminators for transmitted and reflected illumination are available for this new microscope range providing 3000 hours of continuous trouble free operation and both illumination modes built into the sleek stand
o For fiber light illumination a new 'off-the-workbench' lamp housing eliminates clutter in the work area and provides bright, long-life illumination.
Backed by Olympus' 5-year warranty, the new zoom stereomicroscope models will provide years of trouble free usage together with the inherent optical quality customers associate with the Olympus family of products.
