1.) The most popular configuration consists of our modular EMZ, EMF & EMT components, purchased separately to create the perfect instrument for your application. 

2.) We also offer all-in-one, non-modular, completed configuration systems. You will find these systems listed as "Non-Modular" in the product listing.

EMZ STEREO ZOOM BODY MODULE

The body is the heart of our modular zoom stereo microscope design. It contains the objectives and prisms that capture the image of the specimen, magnify it, and direct it to the eyetubes. The body, by itself, cannot be used to view an object; it also needs eyepieces that further magnify the image and allow the viewer to see, and it must be mounted on a stand that has a focus mechanism for raising and lowering the body.

Zoom stereo microscope bodies are the most flexible because they offer a wider range of magnification than turret (EMT) or fixed (EMF) bodies. Much like the zoom lens on a camera, zoom objectives increase and decrease magnification progressively, causing the specimen to grow or shrink smoothly in the eyes of the viewer. Copies of our zoom microscopes are made in many countries throughout the world. However, our products hold their parfocality or focus throughout the zoom range and not all microscope brands seem to do this which is one reason why our products retain their value for many, many years.

With the modular configuration, additional items are needed to create a full microscope system. The following components are normally ordered:

• Stereo Microscope Body: Zoom (EMZ), Turret (EMT), or Fixed (EMF) 
• Eyepieces: Requires 2 of identical magnification
• Stand: Pole stand, rigid arm stand, boom stand, heavy duty boom stand, wide surface stand or articulated arm stand 
• Illumination Source: Fiber optic halogen, fiber optic LED, fluorescent ring or LED
• Auxiliary Lens: Optional
