Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

• What is the main advantage of a Trinocular head over a Binocular head?
  A: The Trinocular head features a dedicated third port, which is crucial for mounting a digital camera, high-definition screen, or imaging module. This allows the user to view the specimen through the eyepieces while simultaneously capturing high-resolution digital images or streaming live video for teaching or documentation.
• Which types of cameras are compatible with the XD Trinocular Microscope?
  A: This microscope is compatible with a wide range of C-mount cameras, including high-resolution CMOS/CCD cameras (e.g., 5MP, 8MP, 4K models) and dedicated microscope tablets (Scope Pads). An appropriate C-mount adapter is usually required to ensure parfocality with the eyepieces.
• Is this model suitable for advanced research applications?
  A: Yes, the XD Trinocular model, especially when equipped with optional **Plan Achromatic Objectives**, is perfectly suited for advanced research in biology, pathology, and materials science. Its robust build and precise mechanics ensure the stability needed for critical imaging tasks and long duration analysis.
• What does the Quintuple Revolving Nosepiece offer?
  A: A Quintuple (5-hole) nosepiece allows the user to mount five different objective lenses (e.g., 4x, 10x, 40x, 60x, 100x), providing greater flexibility and eliminating the need to manually change objectives when switching magnifications. This speeds up workflow significantly.
• Does the LED illumination provide sufficient brightness for all objectives?
  A: Modern high-power LED illumination systems are designed to provide extremely bright, uniform, and color-temperature-consistent light, making them superior to older halogen lamps. They offer more than enough brightness for use with even the high-magnification 100x oil immersion objective.
