Levenhuk M500 BASE Digital Camera

Levenhuk M500 BASE Digital Camera
Modern digital camera for microscopes

If studying samples under a microscope in the usual way does not excite you, turn your microscope into a digital optical instrument. The Levenhuk M500 BASE camera will allow you to make videos of microcosm inhabitants, take photos of samples, and share interesting moments of your research with your friends and other people who share your hobby. The Levenhuk M500 BASE is an advanced model in this range that will allow you to obtain high-quality photos and video recordings from home. It can be used for teaching or for your scientific hobbies.

The Levenhuk M500 BASE is installed by replacing one of the eyepieces and transfers the image to an external screen in real-time. A standard USB cable (included) is used to connect the camera. The Levenhuk software will allow you to edit photos and videos that you have recorded. The camera has four video recording modes and one photo mode pre-configured. This camera is compatible with biological and stereoscopic microscopes that have 23.2 mm diameter optical tubes. If your microscope's optical tube is a different size, you can still use this camera with an adapter (not included).

It comes with a CD containing special software for editing previously saved images: enlarging them, cropping them, changing contrast, etc.

Make sure your computer meets the necessary system requirements. Compatible with Mac OS, Linux, Windows.
