Binocular Zoom Stereo Microscope | 1:8.1 High Zoom Ratio | WF10x/24mm

A zoom stereo microscope provides a 3D, unreversed image of a specimen. It is widely used for PCB soldering inspection, jewelry and gemstone engraving, biological dissection, and precision assembly.

The zoom ratio is the ratio between the lowest and highest magnification of the zoom body. A 1:8.1 high zoom ratio (0.65x to 5.3x) provides a massively flexible range of magnifications without changing eyepieces.

A 1:6.5 ratio is standard, usually offering 7x to 45x magnification. The 1:8.1 ratio is an upgraded, research-grade optic that allows a wider sweep, giving you 6.5x at the low end (for seeing the whole object) up to 53x at the high end for fine details.

WF stands for Wide Field. 10x is the magnification, and 24mm is the Field of View (FOV). A 24mm FOV is exceptionally large, allowing you to see a much wider area of your PCB or biological sample at once.

Working distance is the vertical space between the bottom of the objective lens and the top of the focused specimen. This model features a 108mm working distance, providing ample room for tools, soldering irons, and tweezers.

The Greenough optical system uses two completely separate optical paths set at an angle (usually 10-12 degrees) to mimic human binocular vision. This results in excellent 3D perception and a very large depth of field without dizziness.

Many professionals prefer the zoom stereo microscope without light source on a pole stand so they can use specialized, third-party illumination like LED ring lights, fiber optic gooseneck lights, or polarized bar lights tailored to their specific inspection needs.

You can screw on optional auxiliary lenses to the bottom of the pod. Common sizes are 0.5x (doubles your working distance but halves magnification) and 2.0x (halves working distance but doubles magnification).

Out of the box, with WF10x eyepieces, it is 6.5x to 53x. However, by combining a 2.0x auxiliary lens and 20x eyepieces, the zoom stereo microscope with total magnification up to 212x becomes possible.

The zoom stereo microscope body inner diameter 76mm means the microscope head fits into any standard 76mm O-ring. This makes it compatible with almost all third-party articulating arms, boom stands, and track stands.

The zoom stereo microscope price India varies greatly depending on the zoom ratio (1:8.1 vs 1:6.5) and stand type. Please contact our sales team for an exact quote on the GBS.23.2605 series.

The binocular stereo microscope with zoom knob magnifying stop pin for limiting zoom range allows quality control managers to lock the microscope into specific magnifications, ensuring repeatable measurements across different users.

No, the optical heads are sealed at the factory. If you plan to use a digital camera for recording PCB soldering or dissection videos, you should purchase the Trinocular (GBS.23.2605-T) model from the start.

This model comes with a standard Pole Stand. However, thanks to its 76mm diameter mount, the pod can be removed and placed onto pneumatic boom stands, heavy-duty track stands, or articulating arms.
