Leica M205 FA Stereomicroscope

The combination of proven TripleBeam® technology with the unique FusionOptics™ concept opens up new dimensions in fluorescence stereomicroscopy. The fully apochromatically optics system, the largest zoom range available on the market, 20.5 : 1, and a resolution to 1050 lp / mm will provide you with a view of details hitherto unknown in stereomicroscopy. Time-intensive studies of living organisms and documentation of complex image series and multiple fluorescence images are made possible and instantly reproducible by motorizing the focus, zoom, filter changer and iris diaphragm.

Convincing experiments
Control the IsoPro™ motorized cross-stage with the SmartTouch™, the Leica Application Suite (LAS), or the Leica AF6000 software. You can move to any stage position and program repeating processes. This way, Leica stereo­microscopes can be expanded into complete documentation ­systems that satisfy every re­quirement, from simple fluorescence photo­graphs to intricate, multidimensional fluores­cence experiments.

Intelligent control
With the colored touchscreen of the SmartTouch™ Control Unit, you can control your experiment procedures with a few hand movements and never lose sight of all your important optical parameters. The most important control functions on the control unit can be adjusted to your specific needs with freely programmable rotary knobs and function buttons. Operation is intuitive, so you can concentrate entirely on your research, not on the microscope.

FusionOptics™ makes the impossible possible
Until now, high depth of field and maximum resolution were always considered to be irreconcilable opposites. With FusionOptics™, Leica Microsystems has succeeded in overcoming these limitations. In the same way, the new Leica M205 FA uses the two beam paths for different tasks: the right channel delivers a high-resolution image at the largest possible numerical aperture, while the left channel presents an image with high depth of field. As a result, two apparently irreconcilable worlds are merged in the human brain: the observer receives an image with outstanding richness of detail and outstanding depth of field at the same time.
