AmScope H800 Microscope 11X-80X

The AmScope H800 monocular inspection microscope has a 0.4x C-mount camera adapter, a 0.7x-5.0x zoom objective, and an 11x-80x zoom range. The microscope has a 12.9 x 17.1mm maximum field of view and a 1.8 x 2.4mm minimum field of view. The working distance is 4-1/8" (105mm). Ambient lighting illuminates the specimen, eliminating the need for power or batteries. The microscope stand has an 11" pillar and a 13 x 10" table (W x D, where W is width, the horizontal distance from left to right; D is depth, the vertical distance from front to back). Handheld stand microscopes, sometimes called shop microscopes, are used in field, lab, and quality control applications, and in home and educational settings.

W is width, the horizontal distance from left to right; D is depth, the vertical distance from front to back.

Microscopes are instruments used to enhance the resolution of an object or image. Types include compound, stereo, or digital. Compound microscopes use a compound optical system with an objective lens and an eyepiece. Stereo microscopes show object depth in a three-dimensional image. Digital microscopes are used to display an image on a monitor, rather than looking through a lens. Microscopes can have monocular (one), binocular (two), or trinocular (three) eyepieces, with varying magnification abilities. Magnification ability refers to the size of an image. Resolution, also known as resolvant power, refers to the clarity of the image. The interaction between field of view (FOV), numerical aperture (NA), and working distance (WD) determines resolution. Microscopes can control magnification through a fixed focus, or through a range of adjustments. They can also utilize LED, fluorescent, and mirror light sources to help control viewing capabilities. Microscopes are widely used in education, lab research, biology, metallurgy, engineering, chemistry, manufacturing, and in the medical, forensic science, and veterinary industries.

United Scope manufactures microscopy equipment and accessories under the brand name AmScope. The company, founded in 1996, is headquartered in Irvine, CA.
