The Olympus SZX2 revolving nosepieces and zoom encoders provide a precise, direct-to-software readout of the objective and zoom-factor in use.
The encoders, available for the SZX10 and SZX16 advanced stereo microscopes, ensure the exact optical magnification associated with each image is displayed and recorded during imaging, using either the cell or stream software ranges.
Thanks to the advance of stereo optics, the Olympus SZX10 and SZX16 Galileo-type zoom stereo microscopes have set the standard for documentation, measuring and advanced particle analysis.
To make measurement results more accurate, reliable and traceable, Olympus now offers both a revolving nosepiece encoder and a zoom encoder, which provide direct-to-software readouts of the objective in use and the exact zoom-factor, respectively.
Both encoders integrate fully with the Olympus Stream software packages for materials science imaging and the cell family software programs (cell^A - cell^P) for life-science imaging.
Existing SZX10 and SZX16 users can also benefit from these new developments as both microscopes can be upgraded with new encoder systems.
