AmScope SM-3 Series Zoom Binocular Stereo Microscope with 8W Fluoresce

The SM-3B is a heavy-duty, highly-flexible microscope designed for biological and industrial applications. This model is especially popular in the QC, dental, repair and engraving industries thanks to its ease-of-use and reliability. With its wide zoom range and single-arm boom-stand, this model will become an indispensable instrument in any workshop or lab.

Optics

The stereo optics provide clear, sharp images with excellent focus-depth and a large working-distance. With 0.7X-4.5X zoom objectives, moving through the magnification range is as easy as turning a knob. 10X wide-field eyepieces provide an ample magnification range from 7X to 45X, with high-eyepoint optics to accommodate glasses or goggles.

Ocular Adjustment

Dual ocular diopters can be adjusted to maintain consistent focus, greatly improving productivity. Rotating interpupillary adjusters simplify the process of aligning the eyepieces for each user.

Single-arm Boom-Stand

The multi-pivoting stand provides a stable, flexible support system, ideal for hands-on work. The single-arm design provides heavy-duty support in a simple form. The head can be turned 360°, the focus-block can swing in either direction, and the lateral arm can rotate and swing to position the head at virtually any angle. The heavy, steel base ensures the stability of the microscope, even when laden with attachments.

Additional Items

This package includes an 8W fluorescent ring-light for seamless lighting. This lightweight illuminator mounts to the microscope’s objective housing, and projects a smooth, encompassing field of light over objects, eliminating most shadows. Whether used as the sole light-source or in combination with additional illuminators, the ring-light produces a crucial light pattern for virtually any application.

Digital Imaging

Monitor and capture photos and videos with the included 1.3MP USB2.0 camera. The C-mount camera is specially designed for use with microscopes, allowing you to watch live images, and to record photos or videos on your computer. This ability to view microscopic images on your computer reduces eye-strain, and allows groups of people to view images at the same time. A 0.37X reduction lens is included for use with 23mm-30.5mm ports to capture more of the microscope's field-of-view. Our professional software for Windows provides a wide assortment of capture and photo-editing functions including color correction, time-lapse capture, image stitching, and a full complement of measuring tools. A lite version of our software is available for Mac and Linux with essential functionality for capturing photos and videos.
