New Portable Microscope
25-100x with up to 4mm depth of field!
18 June 2006: Grayfield Optical Inc. will be demonstrating an improved version of their Portable Microscope. One of the biggest problems faced by those using microscopes is the lack of useful depth of field. The more you enlarge an object, the worse it gets. Additionally, microscopes are usually quite large and therefore cumbersome to take out into the field. This unique new lens adaptor system addresses both of these problems by making use of the unique Olbrich Lens System which will convert your Nikon CoolPix S4 digital camera into a lightweight, easy to use 25-100x portable microscope with as much as 4mm depth of field while retaining excellent resolution, high contrast and true colour rendition! The first microscope to give you extra depth of field! This microscope system provides an exceptionally high optical resolution, unparalleled 1.5 - 4mm depth of field at full aperture, free of any spherical aberration or parallax errors. Photograph stunning, brilliant images in their true colours! The Nikon CoolPix S4 is a well-proven 6 megapixel digital camera with autofocus and swivel lens to ensure you can always take your pictures at the ideal angle. This is especially useful when using the camera as an enhanced highly portable microscope. The special fixed ring tripod design ensures the portable microscope is used at the ideal working distance for maximum possible depth of field. Even expensive laboratory microscopes do not offer you as much depth of field as this lens system at the same magnifications. Ideal for pictures of coins, stones, plants, etc. Often used commercially for picturing material faults, blemishes, rust, etc. on-site. This powerful, yet easy to use microscope system offers a wide range of capabilities with a good cost-performance ratio. We will be demonstrating the portable microscope at the Grayfield Optical stand, I12 (at the back of the hall). About Grayfield Optical Inc.
