The Levenhuk Discovery Atto Polar Digital Microscope is a biological optical microscope with a 5MP digital camera. It can be used to visualize the microcosm as well as to save sample images in photo or video format. The microscope has a magnification range of 40x to 1000x, thus allowing a detailed study of the sample, regardless of its degree of transparency, and the possibility of conducting experiments with immersion of the objective in oil. Included in the kit is an in-depth educational book about the microcosm.

Achromatic optics, magnification range between 40x and 1000x

The monocular head can be rotated 360° around the vertical axis. The 45° inclination of the muzzle guarantees greater comfort during prolonged observations. The optical system includes a 10x wide-field eyepiece with center-of-field pointer and four achromatic objectives with 4x, 10x, 40x and 100x magnification. The 40x and 100x objective lenses are equipped with a spring mechanism for additional protection. The instrument is equipped with macro and micrometer focus.

Dual LED lighting

The microscope stage is complemented by a mechanical translator for optimal use of micro-sample preparation techniques. The lighting system consists of LED lights with variable intensity. The upper lighting above the stage and the lower lighting below. Both lights can be powered by batteries (not included) or with an AC adapter (the AC adapter is included in the kit). The microscope is equipped with an Abbe condenser with iris diaphragm and a filter holder.

5MP digital camera for capturing photos and videos

The 5 MP camera gives this model an edge over the competition. The camera can be installed in the optical tube of the head instead of the eyepiece and connected to a computer via USB cable. Installation of the software is required using the supplied CD. The camera can upload real-time images to a computer screen with 2592x1944 resolution, as well as take photos and record videos. Basic image processing capabilities are available for both photos and videos.

The "Invisible World" educational book is included in the kit

The book "Invisible World" allows you to quickly learn how to use a microscope and how to find your way around the variety of the microcosm. The in-depth volume is written in easy-to-understand language and contains vivid illustrations, as well as explaining scientific theories and preparing students to apply this knowledge in practice. Simple scientific experiments can be performed at home with the help of this educational testo .
