This 'all-in-one' hybrid microscope can be used for upright and inverted observation methods.

• 5 MP monochrome camera - large field of view and high sensitivity for fluorescence imaging
• Intelligent objective nosepiece - this allows the software interface to automatically recognise the objective being used
• Z stack software module (optional) - automated acquisition of Z stacks
• DHR (Digital Haze Reduction) sofware module (optional) - supresses image noise and blur providing crytsal clear images
• Illumination technique: Brightfield and epi-fluorescence (phase contrast available as an option)
• 12 MP CMOS colour camera (Brightfield)
• Ultra-bright LEDs with 50000-hour lifespan
• Touch screen functions drive cameras and illumination, replacing manual turrets and levers
• Traditional eyepieces are replaced by an iPad tablet for easier viewing (retina display)
• Custom software app simplifies the workflow of taking images and seamlessly integrates with other cloud sharing apps

The upright observation method is ideal for viewing glass slides. Useful for water dipping applications. The inverted observation method is suitable for viewing live samples in fluidic chambers such as dishes and well plates. It also allows for easier manipulation of samples. Ideal for long working distance applications.
