<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Ce BCA, post: 4270048, member: 18716&quot;]It&#039;s a compound microscope, usually used with slides etc for viewing all kinds of items medical or other.&nbsp; If you check the eyepiece it should have the magnification factor on it, usually 5-20, then multiply this by the &#039;x&#039; number on the objective and that gives you the magnification.&nbsp; So if the eyepiece is a 10, then using the 43x objective gives you a magnification of x430.&nbsp; The &#039;turret&#039; bearing the objectives rotates, and you can change the objectives by unscrewing them.&nbsp; Looks like there is a light (or focussing lens) under the table to illuminate slides from underneath.</p><p><br /></p><p>Looks like it has a geared x-y table as well, must had been quite a fancy model in it&#039;s day, the maker is known for quality products and I think still in business today.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
