Fluorescence beam path
The new fluorescence beam path is corrected apochromatically for consistently good contrasting and homogeneous illumination.

Reflector turret
The reflector turret adjusts reflector modules quicker to save you time with experiments.

Light sources
With the wide spectrum of high-performance light sources, your work will always be spot on.

Fluorescence shutters
Two fluorescence shutters help you reduce the exposure of living cells to an absolute minimum.

Diaphragm sliders
Three diaphragm sliders increase the versatility of your Live Cell Imaging.

High-efficiency filter sets
The high-efficiency filter sets reduce exposure times up to 50 percent and significantly improve the signal-to-noise ratio.
