New generation binocular microscope has options including digital and analogue video camera, plus ergonomic controls and infinity-corrected optics
The PriorLux is the first of a new generation of microscopes from Prior Scientific which, the company says, has redefined the excellent performance coupled with affordable price that its customers expect.
Infinity-corrected optics are a feature, while the stand is of a modern design with a curved limb and ergonomic controls including low set coaxial coarse and fine focus controls.
To bring the instrument right up to date, Prior offers a range of options to enable capture of high quality digital images for archiving and publication.
Simplest option is an eyepiece camera that interfaces directly via USB with a PC.
Prior offers other cameras that mount in the same way but have analogue video outputs, ideal for teaching applications.
This is important as it means that a binocular instrument can be upgraded quickly and inexpensively to allow digital imaging.
