FAQ - Frequently Asked Questions

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.
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.
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.

BRESSER Trinocular Microscope Science TFM-301 with MikroCam SF UHD camera
Powerful combination set consisting of the Science TFM-301 Trino Microscope and the MikroCam SF UHD camera – ideal for school, hobby, and profession. This set combines the solid Science TFM-301 microscope with the MikroCam SF UHD to document observations on a computer.The microscope in detailThe NEW BRESSER Science TFM-301 microscope is equipped with semi-plan objectives.The binocular view allows for comfortable observation. The trinocular port offers the possibility to connect a C-Mount camera.The WF 10x eyepieces have a field of view of 20 mm and therefore provide a large field of view.The eye distance can be adjusted from approximately 55 mm to approximately 75 mm. A diopter adjustment is possible with both eyepieces.The powerful and durable LED illumination is adjustable.The Köhler illumination can be adjusted with the fixed field diaphragm and the height-adjustable and centring Abbe condenser (numerical aperture 1.25; with iris diaphragm). The condenser also features a printout of the various magnifications, allowing for quick and precise adjustment of the iris diaphragm.The coaxial drives of the stage adjustment and the coarse and fine focusing enable ergonomic working.The trinocular port allows for the direct connection of a C-Mount camera or MikroCam.SCOPE OF DELIVERY MICROSCOPEMicroscope stand with integrated LED illuminationSemi-plan objectives (4x, 10x, 40x, 100x oil)Two WF 10x eyepiecesC-Mount adapterImmersion oilDust coverPower supplyUser manualThe microscope camera in detailThe BRESSER MikroCam SF cameras are excellent for capturing photos and videos with a microscope. This allows observations of objects to be easily documented and shared with others. The high frame rate of the MikroCam SF series enables the creation of videos with smooth image flow. The built-in Sony sensors provide good image quality, colour reproduction, and dynamics.The included software supports the following languages: German, English, French, Spanish, Italian, Polish, Turkish.The MikroCamLabII software offers a wide range of functions. Essential functions (e.g., exposure time and sensitivity) can be controlled automatically or manually.Very convenient are the functions for so-called focus stacking (for high depth of field) and the creation of a mosaic or panorama. These two functions can be performed with a previously recorded image series or directly from the live view. The creation of sharp images using live focus stacking (EDF) is possible with the MikroCamLabII software in just a few minutes. While you focus on the microscope, the software gradually builds the finished, completely sharp result image without further intervention. This way, you get impressive, sharp image results in no time.The measurement function* included in the software helps you determine sizes or display a scale. You can measure distances, angles, or areas with just a few clicks. Extensive functions support you in measuring circles with area and radius or even complex polygons.Measurements can be performed in the captured image as well as in the live image. The MikroCamLabII software also includes extensive algorithms for automated image analysis, e.g., for particle counting or area evaluation.The housing features a C-Mount connection thread and can therefore be used with microscopes from various manufacturers. We are happy to advise you on which MikroCam is optimally suited for your microscope.For use on devices with a 23.2 mm receptacle, an optional 0.5x reducing optics (Art. No. 5914015 (fixed), Art. No. 5914005 (variable)) is available. For special applications, e.g., with a C-Mount objective, the camera can also be mounted on the integrated 1/4" tripod thread.*A suitable measuring tool is required for calibrating the measurement function, e.g.: Art. No. 5916710 or 5916720.FEATURES OF THE MICROSCOPE CAMERA3840x2160 pixel sensor (UHD), 6.22 x 3.5 mm (1/2.5")Frame rate: up to 30 fpsHigh-quality metal housingMany software functions such as measurement, focus stacking (to overlay multiple recordings for increased depth of field), mosaic (to display larger image fields)Image and video recording, including time-lapse functionCompatible with microscopes from all manufacturersSYSTEM REQUIREMENTSWindows 10 or 11Intel i3, i5, i7 or i9 processor from 6th generation or higher orAMD FX or Ryzen processor from 1st generationInternet connection for software downloadMin.
