Leica S Series User Manual 41
The observation beam path and the
photobeam path can be switched. For
this, the light splitting is influenced as follows:
▶
"Vis" position: 100% light in both eyepieces,
but no light in the video/photo beam path
▶
"Doc" position: 100% light in the right
eyepiece, but no light in the left eyepiece.
100% of the light crosses the video/photo
beam path
The focusing and the framing are done
with the left eyepiece (video/photo
beam path).
Flat specimens are sometimes blurry on
the left and right edge of the image. This
blurring is based on laws of optics and does not
mean there is a malfunction of the camera or
the microscope.
Capturing images and videos
1. If the image detail and image sharpness are
set to your satisfaction, switch on the "Doc"
setting and capture your image.
•
The images captured with the camera
may not be used for diagnosis. In
this case, an evaluation with the eyepieces is
required.
