Motic® SMZ-168 Stereo Zoom Microscope

The SMZ-168 provides clear real 3-D imaging with a convenient zoom magnification range from 7.5 to 50x provided by the combination of the Greenough optical system and the standard 10x super widefield eyepieces. The long working distance of 113mm coupled to the large field of view for the standard configuration makes this an ideal system for setting up a work station for preparation, dissecting, micro-assembly, forensics or quality assurance. Features top light for incident illumination and a bottom light for transmitted illumination (streamline base). Both halogen and LED illumination are available. The optional trinocular port accepts an optional video C-mount and SLR camera adapters. Should you choose a Motic® or third-party camera, Motic® provides a range of C-mount adapters which are necessary for trinocular port attachment. See the Optical Specification Chart for other magnifications with use of optional auxiliary objectives and eyepieces. The SMZ-168 Series Stereo Microscope is available with a large variety of stands and many options to configure this versatile system to your exact requirements.

Optical System

Total magnification range with optional lenses 1.1x-320x.

Halogen Illumination with Streamline Base Post Stand

Top light is 12V/10W halogen for incident illumination with adjustable beam and variable control.
Bottom light is 12V/10W halogen light which provides bright light for transmitted illumination. Cool fluorescent 12V/5W bottom illumination available as an option on FBGG large post stand.
4 position light control: top only/bottom only, top & bottom on/off.

LED Illumination with Streamline Base Post Stand

Top light is 3W LED for incident illumination with adjustable beam and variable control.
Bottom light is 3W LED light which provides bright light for transmitted illumination.
Transmitted illumination is an indirect illumination to avoid the hot spot problems of the other LED stands when used with a digital camera.
5500K Color Temperature
4 position light control: top only/bottom only, top & bottom on/off.

Focusing

Ergonomic dual focusing knobs, heavy-duty rack & pinion with slip-clutch to prevent damage to mechanism with tension adjustment to eliminate focus “drift”.
Focusing block fits 32mm diameter post and facilitates 76mm stereo heads
