Leica MZ16 Microscope & Magnifier User Manual


 
Video/phototubes are designed to support modular
photomicrography systems, and Leica digital, video, film
or SLR cameras.
The modular photomicrographic systems and the Leica digi-
tal cameras are detailed in a separate user manual, along
with instructions for their assembly and use.
When you are not taking photographs, engage the observa-
tion beam path.
Accessories such as the coaxial incident illuminator always
fit between the stereomicroscope and the phototube.
