Parfocality: More Comfort and Convenience for Your Work
All Leica stereo microscopes are parfocally
matched, meaning that you can view a focused
specimen from the lowest to the highest
magnification without having to refocus. The
focus needs only be readjusted if you want to
see a specimen location that is located higher
or lower.
Requirements for parfocal work

Parfocality
1. Enlarge the view to the maximum level.
2. Focus on the specimen.
You are done! Even if you select a smaller work-
ing distance, the specimen remains pin-sharp.
The parfocality is maintained until you focus on
another level of the specimen.
