Leica M205 FA Microscope & Magnifier User Manual


 
Leica M-series User Manual 81
For most microscope users, digital documen-
tation has become an invaluable part of their
work. Research results can be presented in an
attractive manner; measurements on the digital
image provide clarity and, in conjunction with
the motorized IsoPro™ mechanical stage, even
images of large specimens can be captured
step by step and automatically joined to create
a new complete image.
Adapter
If camera control using the Leica Application
Suite is not required, conventional mirror reflex
and rangefinder cameras from third-party
manufacturers can be used. For this purpose,
Leica Microsystems offers a variety of adapters
that can be used together with the 50% and
100% trinocular tubes.
Leica DFC cameras
However, if you require absolute control
over the camera and need the capability for
measurement, evaluation and more in addition
to photography, the digital Leica DFC cameras
are exactly right for you. Together with the
Leica Application Suite, they provide virtually
limitless freedom of use. For additional informa-
tion about Leica cameras, refer to the camera's
documentation.
Leica Application Suite
The "Leica Application Suite", or "LAS" for short,
is, as it were, the digital extension of the Leica
M series microscopes. In addition to capturing
images, it lets you control the microscope, illu-
minator, stages, cameras and more. For addi-
tional information, refer to the LAS online help.
