FAQ - Frequently Asked Questions

I want to examine microorganisms such as lactic acid or photosynthetic bacteria – which microscope is suitable?

For this application we recommend the BRESSER Erudit DLX 40-1000x microscope in combination with a USB camera, e.g. the BRESSER MikroCam 1.3 MP. This solution offers better image quality and flexibility than a simple LCD microscope.

If you want to identify bacteria, it is usually more useful to create a culture. Microscopes are generally only sufficient to determine whether the bacteria are, for example, spherical or rod-shaped.

Where can I find the Barlow lens?

The Barlow lens is already installed in the eyepiece tube on many devices. It can be pulled out at the upper ridge to use the zoom function.

At higher magnifications the image is blurry or lacks contrast – what can I do?

Possible causes:

Sample too thick / unsuitable: Use thin samples or fixed smears.
No cover glass or incorrect thickness: Objectives are optimized for cover glasses.
Condenser incorrectly adjusted: Do not open the diaphragm too far – otherwise contrast will be low.
Magnification too high: Rule of thumb: maximum 1000 × objective aperture. Example: With a 40x objective with aperture 0.65, the limit is about 650x.

Product information "BRESSER MikroCamII 5MP HIS Microscope Camera"

The BRESSER MikroCamII 5MP HIS with the light sensitive and low-noise Sony® IMX264 sensor is perfectly suited for low light applications. The camera uses a global shutter, which captures moving objects without distortion.

With sufficient lighting, the camera is also capable of ultra short exposures as low as 1/50.000 second. In this mode, the camera can virtually freeze fast moving objects.

The BRESSER MikroCamLabII software includes a variety of useful functions, e.g. measuring in live mode (optional calibration slide needed), mosaic/stitching, focus stacking (for extended depth of field). All camera parameters (exposure time, gain, white balance) can be set manually.

Mosaic and focus stacking can be done in live mode, which gives instant results even for unexperienced users. The method is also much faster than the normal procedure where a set of images is rendered afterwards. To use the mosaic function in live mode, a crosstable / mechanical desk is highly recommended to move the sample.

The big camera sensor is not compatible with all microscope models. It might lead to vignetting (dark edges). To compensate this, a 1.0x optical adapter (item code 5914001) is recommended.

This camera will not work with the ETD-201 stereo microscope as the microscope will illuminate only a part of the sensor. For this microscope, we recommend the model MikroCamII 12MP item code 5914912.

BRESSER Blank Slide with 1/100 mm scale

Blank slides with 1/100 mm scale for your microscope are meant for calibration of measurements. They are used together with eyepiece micrometers or a measuring software (for cameras) to measure samples. This slide is suitable for biological microscopes or reflected light microscopes with high magnification (e.g. metallurgical microscopes). The scale is made by metal deposition on the glass surface of a standard (1x3 inch or 26x76mm) glass slide.The slide is suitable for the calibration of the MikroCamLabII imaging software.SCOPE OF DELIVERY1x Blank Slide with 1/100 mm scaleplastic box for storage
