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 Bird/Small Animal-Camera SFC-1
Sunshine, fresh air, a nice drink and the birds are chirping at the birdhouse. What could be better than watching the bird or the squirrel? So that you can be even closer to the action, BRESSER has developed the bird and small animal camera. Experience your gardeners from a completely new perspective. Use the camera to shoot photos and / or videos of max. 1m distance. Equipped with a 940nm infrared LED illumination, this digital camera can be used both day and night for stunning close-up pics of the small animal. The camera has a motion sensor, with a range of about 1 m, which triggers the camera when an animal flies in front of the camera. Small movements of trees or shrubs are thus prevented. It is also suitable for all seasons due to its rainproof housing. Not only photos are possible with this camera. Also video recordings, optionally of 5.10, 20, 30 seconds, 1 minute or 5min in length, can be recorded. The camera can be used during the day (color images) and thanks to the infrared lighting during the night (black and white). The low power consumption ensures a long service life without having to constantly change the batteries. CHARACTERISTICS Infrared motion sensor allows photo and video recordings (16MP Photo, 1920x1080 24fps video, 1280x720 30fps, 640x480 30fps video) colored pictures by day, monochrome pictures by night 4 built-in infrared LEDs for bright pictures up to 1m away Fast 0.6 sec. tripping time low power consumption for long operating time (up to 12 months in stand-by mode) Tripod connection thread 1/4 '', SD card slot Mini USB port DELIVERY digital small animal camera USB cable assembly belt Mounting rod for mounting to your bird house incl. 6 fixing screws operation manual

BRESSER USB Digital Microscope DST-1028 5MP
The BRESSER USB Digital Microscope DST-1028 5MP enables easy and convenient observation of your specimen on the computer with detailed images. The digital handheld microscope is especially suitable for examining material samples, circuit boards and electronic components, but also plants, insects and much more. In addition to applications in school and hobby, the digital microscope is also suitable for tasks in quality assurance. The device features high-quality optics with continuous zoom. This enables documentation of the specimen between 10x and 280x magnifications. Depending on the object to be examined, the appropriate magnification can always be selected. With its ring light, the digital incident light microscope ensures optimal illumination and high-contrast images of your specimen. The ring light consists of eight LEDs. The brightness can be conveniently controlled with the dimmer, which is integrated in the USB connection cable. The microscope has a stable, adaptable metal stand, which can be adjusted in height depending on the object height and magnification used. This makes it possible to examine both larger and very flat objects (e.g. printing documents). At low magnifications, the working distance is 110 mm, so that working with tools, e.g. for preparation, is possible underneath.
