Nikon Eclipse LV100 POL & Eclipse 50i POL
with Image Analysis Software
 
Outstanding optical performance, perfect for a wide variety of imaging applications. Both microscopes offer advanced polarizing microscopy under both diascopic and episcopic illumination.

 
Both diascopic and episcopic polarizing observations are possible by mounting the LV-UEPI universal epi-illuminator  
The illuminator is brighter than a 100W lamp  
With an optional universal-type nosepiece and DIC accessories, differential interference contrast (DIC) microscopy is also possible  
Nosepiece uses the same DIN standard compensator slot as more expensive models  
All objectives on the nosepiece are centerable  
Uses CFI60 optics, realizing both high NA and long working distance  
Clamp-type focusing mechanism makes for easy, safe specimen exchange  
Excellent cost performance balanced with superb basic performance as a polarizing microscope  
Seamlessly integrate your microscope and PC to capture, annotate, measure, and archive images using our state-of-the-art OmniMet image analysis software
