The higher the magnification, the more light is needed for a good image
quality.
Important notes:
Depending on the preparation in use, higher magnification in individual
cases will not lead to a better picture! The magnification is altered by
changing the objective. This alters the sharpness of the image which must
be adjusted by the focusing wheel. Proceed here very carefully. If you raise
the microscope table too quickly, the objective and the slides can touch
each other and be damaged!
e) The magnification factor of the LCD eyepiece amounts to 10x. In
combination with the 4X-objective we obtain a total magnification of 40X, i.e.
1 mm of the object is shown as 40 mm on the LCD monitor. With the 10X
objective we have a total magnification of 100X, correspondingly, with the
40X objective 400X.
f) The colour filter disc, beneath the microscope table helps you when
viewing very brightly or transparent preparations. For this please select the
suitable colour depending upon the object being observed. The
components of colourless or transparent objects (e.g. grain containing
starch, single-celled organisms) will be much easier to recognise.
3.2 Operation of the screen module
3.2.1 Observing the screen
If you switch on the LCD monitor (see section 3.1 c), you will see the live
image of your object as well as three different displays.
a) Lower right is the remaining internal storage capacity of the screen
module available for image files and showing picture’s revolution above it.
b) In the centre alongside a magnifying glass symbol, is the electronic zoom
factor. By pressing the arrow keys “up ” or “down” electronic magnification
of the image can be set with a factor from 1 to 8. For a fast run keep the
keys pressed down.
c) At the top right hand corner, is a camera symbol. (photographic mode or
video mode)
3.2.2 Producing photographs
