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.

Product information "BRESSER Trinocular Microscope Science TFM-301 with MikroCam SF UHD camera"

The microscope in detail

The 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.

The microscope camera in detail

The 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.

BRESSER Set Microscope Slides
Slides and cover glasses are an indispensable accessory which has also impact on the image quality. For most biological microscopes, the cover glass thickness is an important optical parameter, which is therefore included in the optical design and, if so, printed on the sleeve of every objective. You can usually see the number 0.17 which is the thickness in millimeters. For demanding applications in the laboratory, or for microphotography, using cover glasses with the desired thickness and high quality is necessary.The cover glasses included in the set are made of Boro 3.3 glass and are standardized to a thickness of 0.16-0.19mm. So they match the desired 0.17mm really good and give the best possible image quality. These Boro 3.3 cover glasses are pure white, without streaks and are pre-cleaned and ready to use. They are also especially suitable for fluorescence microscopy.The slides are made of soda lime glass, and have ground edges for safe handling. They have a matte field for writing on both sides (top and bottom). Slides and cover glasses are packed separately and in a vacuum sealed bag, containing moisture absorbent. They can be stored for a long time without loss of quality from hydrolysis and are easy to take out.

A PC or laptop is not required for operating the camera; you can simply connect the MikroCam MINI Full HD HDMI to an existing monitor, TV, projector, or smartboard. This makes it ideal for use in the classroom. Alternatively, a small monitor from BRESSER can also be mounted directly on the camera (see item no. 5914120).The HDMI connection is easy to make, and the camera is ready to use immediately. No software installation, PC setup, etc. is required. Due to the lossless data transmission, very good image quality is achieved, and the image is always at a consistently high frame rate of 60 fps and lag-free. This is particularly advantageous when a microscope workstation, for example, in quality control or production, needs to be digitized.To control the camera, the included USB mouse is connected. This allows you to control the three menus (camera settings, measurement*, and display).*To take measurements with the camera, a calibration specimen is required (e.g., item no.: 5916710 or 5916720).The camera is also very suitable for presentations, as the camera operates in automatic mode when the mouse is not connected. The menus and mouse pointer are then not visible.Please note that a direct PC connection is not possible. An HDMI to USB video capture device is required for that. The USB port is only for controlling the camera with the mouse.FEATURES OF THE MICROSCOPE CAMERAHDMI connection for direct connection to a monitor, TV, projector, or smartboardC-Mount thread for easy adaptability to various microscopes (manufacturer-independent)Compatible with USB sticks or SD card readers (max. storage size: 512 GB)No PC/laptop necessarySCOPE OF DELIVERY MICROSCOPE CAMERAMikroCam MINI Full HD HDMI with C-Mount connectionPower supply (12 V / 2A)USB mouseHDMI cable (approx. 1.5 m)
