How it works

The BX60M includes controls for adjusting the field iris diaphragm, aperture iris diaphragm, and pinhole diaphragm, which allow the user to control illumination uniformity, contrast, and depth of focus. The stage can be adjusted in height and rotated, and the tension of the X-axis and Y-axis knobs is adjustable. The microscope also provides a light path selection feature for switching between observation and photomicrography.[1]
