Description:

The Meade 9460 microscope comes with a research-level assortment of equipment, components, and features. The five prepared slides will help introduce you to the workings of your microscope. Then, take the five blank slides and be as creative as you want. Use them to investigate plant life, minerals, cells, and anything else that strikes your interest.

The large 110- by-120-millimeter illuminated stage has easy-to-use micrometric x-y controls for centering your specimen in the field of view. The eyepiece rotates 360 degrees, and is set at a convenient and comfortable 45-degree observing angle. Meade uses an abbe-type condensing lens combined with an iris diaphragm to give you bright, uniform illumination of the specimen.

The microscope's turret-mounted objective lenses, with magnification levels of 10x, 40x, and 100x, can be combined with the two wide-field eyepieces of 10x and 12.5x to yield magnifications of 100x, 125x, 400x, 500x, 1,000x, and 1,250x. Its coarse-and- fine rack-and-pinion focusing mechanism makes this a precision observing tool, and a perfect educational tool for advanced studies in botany and biology.
