The Levenhuk M500 Base 5 Mpx digital camera for microscopes delivers sharp images with good contrast, and videos with a resolution up to 2592×1944 pixels. It represents the highest model in the Base line and makes your microscope a digital device for microscopic observation. Videos of 7.5 frames per second reliably capture events in front of a microscope lens. Once you've connected the camera to your computer or notebook, you can conveniently view the events on the monitor and then capture captured images and videos in the supplied program, LevenhukLite. The M500 Base can be used on optical, biological and metallurgical microscopes, compound or stereoscopic, from all manufacturers. For 23.2mm tube diameters, place the DF Levenhuk M500 Base directly in place of the eyepiece, otherwise use the purchased adapter for another diameter. The Levenhuk Digital Camera is recommended by the manufacturer for both home and professional observation and the recording of real-time and coloured microscope images.
