Nikon Metrology SMZ1270, SMZ1270i and SMZ800N stereo microscopes

Nikon Metrology has released three stereomicroscopes: the SMZ1270, a stereo microscope with a large zoom ratio; the SMZ1270i, a version of SMZ1270 with intelligent features; and the SMZ800N, with enhanced optics and operability.

With their redesigned optics and advanced features, the stereo microscopes provide very good optical performance and enhanced operability, enabling researchers to carry out high-magnification, large-zoom-ratio and high-definition imaging with ease. The clarity of the images and improved ease of use will benefit researchers in a variety of fields, from medical to industrial.

Stereo microscopes have independent optical trains for the right and left eye paths, and thus naturally extend intrinsic stereoscopic viewing capability. In industrial applications, the instruments are used for research, development and quality control of products. They are required to provide advanced optical performance, such as high-magnification imaging and large fields of view, as well as ease of use.
