The stereo microscope or "dissecting microscope" is an optical microscope used for detailed three dimentional vision. Catching the light with two objectives, stereo microscope allows better studies of thick specimen. Capable of dark field observations stereo microscope functions by means of two separate light beams making the visual stereo effect. Stereo microscopes are not very powerful though, their useful magnification is not greater than 100 and 10 times in the average use. Some stereo microscopes use auxiliary objectives for more magnification. |
