Smaller and more versatile laser confocal microscopy platforms would potentially be of great value for in vivo imaging of live biological specimens, in scenarios where the size of conventional ...

A microscope objective lens produces a real, magnified image of an object placed within the field of view. Before it is observed the image is then magnified again by the ocular lens, also known as the ...

Neuroscientists at the University of Zurich have developed innovative objectives for light microscopy by using mirrors to produce images. Their design finds correspondence in mirror telescopes used in ...

Over on YouTube [Applied Science] shows us how to make an f/0.38 camera lens using an oil immersion microscope objective. The f-number of a lens indicates how well it will perform in low-light. To ...

Neuroscientists have developed innovative objectives for light microscopy by using mirrors to produce images. Their design finds correspondence in mirror telescopes used in astronomy on the one hand ...

One day, filmmaker Daniel Schweinert was enjoying taking pictures with a macro lens when he suddenly wondered what would happen if he attached a microscope objective lens to a digital camera.
