Compound microscope Deltaoptical DO-3410 with 3MP camera

Deltaoptical DO-3410 with 3MP camera is a compound laboratory microscope designed for upright brightfield observation and digital documentation. It combines optical observation through the eyepieces with an integrated 3-megapixel camera that enables live viewing and image capture on a connected computer. The instrument is suitable for routine laboratory tasks, teaching and basic research where clear transmitted-light imaging and simple documentation are required.

Advantages

The integrated 3MP camera facilitates direct digital capture of specimens while maintaining standard optical viewing, allowing simultaneous observation through the eyepieces and on-screen imaging software. The optical system delivers clear transmitted-light images at multiple magnifications, and the microscope’s construction provides stable, repeatable focusing and specimen handling. Integrated imaging simplifies data collection and basic documentation workflows without the need for additional third-party camera attachments.

Suitable for

• Educational laboratories and classroom demonstrations
• Routine clinical or diagnostic sample examination
• Basic biological and microbiological research
• Quality control inspections requiring transmitted-light imaging
• Digital documentation and image archiving of slides

Key specifications

• Optical type: upright compound microscope for transmitted-light observation
• Integrated digital sensor: 3 megapixel camera for live view and image capture
• Illumination: built-in transmitted brightfield light source with adjustable intensity
• Objectives: multiple magnifications provided by interchangeable objective lenses
• Eyepieces: binocular viewing tube for comfortable observation
• Stage: mechanical stage with specimen clip or slide holder for precise positioning
• Focusing: coarse and fine focus controls for accurate focusing

How to use

Place the specimen slide on the mechanical stage and secure it with the slide holder. Switch on the illumination and adjust light intensity to a comfortable level. Start with the lowest-power objective and bring the specimen into focus using coarse focus, then refine with fine focus. Connect the microscope to a computer using the provided interface or cable, open the camera software to enable live view, and adjust camera settings for exposure and resolution as needed. Capture images or record live footage through the software for documentation; save files according to your laboratory’s naming and storage conventions.

Usage recommendations

For consistent image quality, calibrate the camera and microscope optical path before quantitative measurements, use clean, dust-free slides and objectives, and store the instrument in a dry, dust-protected environment when not in use. When performing long imaging sessions, monitor illumination intensity and camera temperature to avoid image artifacts.
