The Leica DVM 6 Microscope has some unique features. These include, being able to rotate the head of the microscope 30 degrees in either the clockwise or counter clockwise direction, generate 3D mapping of images using a stiching of images taken at multiple elevations, and being able to focus samples with rough surface topography.

The Leica DVM 6 Microscope has some unique features. These include, being able to rotate the head of the microscope 30 degrees in either the clockwise or counter clockwise direction, generate 3D mapping of images using a stiching of images taken at multiple elevations, and being able to focus samples with rough surface topography. This microscope is very powerful and is able to resolve features on samples down to a size of 1 µm.

The AmScope optical stereomicroscope is a simple optical microscope, capable of magnifying samples up to 40X. The microscope’s software allows for digital images and videos to be taken and stored on the computer.

The Leica DMi8-M Inverted Microscope flips the location of the light source and objective from traditional microscopy. This guarantees a level viewing plane, and is ideal for polished metal samples and live cells. Our setup uses a Leica DMC2900 camera for imaging.
