SMZ1500 stereoscopic zoom microscope is system with apochromatic objectives, zoom ratio of 15 to 1, range of magnifications from 0.75x to 11.25x for total magnifying capability of 3.75x up to 540x, and is best for in depth imaging.Zoom knob allows to zoom from 1x to 11x at 1x-intervals without interrupting observations. Other facets include high eyepoint eyepieces with built-in diopter adjustments, wide field of view, and built-in aperture diaphragm for achieving optimal depth of focus and improved photomicrography.Provides options of either low eye-level viewing tube or tilting eyepiece tube, with or without eye-level risers. Three different diascopic stands with built-in power supplies may also be utilized with instrument, or standard stand that features low profile for increased clearance.
