Description
Clip-on lens 0.5x is an auxiliary objective accessory for stereo zoom microscopy that reduces overall system magnification and widens the working field. It is intended for the Stereo zoom microscope OZL-445 and suits tasks that need a broader overview of larger specimens, dishes, or assemblies before closer examination. The lens is supplied as 1 pc(s) and mounts as a clip-on optical element on the compatible stereo zoom head. With a weight of 0,070 kg, it is a light, easily exchanged add-on for teaching laboratories, research benches, and industrial inspection stations. This 0.5x clip-on lens from manufacturer KERN helps operators adapt the OZL-445 optical train to low-magnification survey work without changing the main zoom body. Such auxiliary optics are commonly used when sample size, handling clearance, or field coverage take priority over maximum magnification. As part of the stereo microscope accessory range, the clip-on lens supports flexible configuration of the OZL-445 platform for biological, materials, and technical imaging workflows that alternate between wide-area orientation and subsequent detailed stereo viewing.
This article belongs on Microscope objectives, eyepieces & optics, in Microscopy & histology.

Questions about Clip-on lens 0.5x, for Stereo zoom microscope OZL-445, 1 unit(s)
What is this article?
Clip-on lens 0.5x, for Stereo zoom microscope OZL-445, 1 unit(s) is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes KERN for laboratory use. It sits in Microscope objectives, eyepieces & optics, inside Microscopy & histology, in Lab instruments.
An objective makes the resolution. Magnification and numerical aperture are the two numbers, and the tube length or the infinity correction has to match the microscope. An eyepiece mostly enlarges the image the objective already resolved. A mismatched objective does not become sharper by zooming.
A light microscope forms an image with glass lenses and transmitted or reflected light. A stereo microscope is the lower-magnification instrument for dissecting and for looking at a surface. Fluorescence needs a light source and filters matched to the dye. Histology is the preparation that makes a tissue readable: fixation, a cassette, a section, a stain. The objective's magnification and numerical aperture decide the resolution. The slide and the cover glass decide whether the section sits in the focal plane. Stains and dyes as substances are identified on PubChem. Papers on the methods are on PubMed.
