1. Microscope Head & Optics

* Manufacturer quality: The optics originate from Carl Zeiss Jena, renowned for excellent glass quality.

* Note on the housing: At the front area of the lamp cover on the housing, a cover or a specific accessory device may be missing. This does not affect the light function, but absolute completeness of the housing cannot be guaranteed (see detail photos).

2. Articulated Arm & Power Supply
