Dear User,
We thank you for your faith in our product, and
hope it brings you both enjoyment and success.
With the new fully apochromatic Leica MZ16 F
from Leica Microsystems, you have purchased the
best-performing, manual fluorescence stereomi-
croscope on the market. The Leica MZ16 F and its
motorized counterpart, the Leica MZ16 FA, provide
the greatest zoom (16:1), the highest resolution (up
to 840 Lp/mm), the highest magnification (115× with
standard optics), the largest numerical aperture
(0.14), a patented illumination and filter system for
the most intense fluorescence, and the innovative
HL RC
TM
high-performance transmitted-light base
for excellent contrast.
The entire imaging system, including the 16:1
zoom, objective and ErgoTube
®
is apochromati-
cally corrected using with much technological
effort. Contrast, sharpness, richness in detail,
resolution, image and color fidelity are optimum.
In addition, the patented illumination beam path
guarantees at every zoom level that light utiliza-
tion is at a maximum and that fluorescence
images are intensely luminous on a jet black
background.
In developing our instruments, we place great
value on simple, self-explanatory operation. How-
ever, please take the time to read the user manual
and the operating safety information so that you
can become familiar with the advantages and fea-
tures of your Leica MZ16 F high-performance
stereomicroscope, so that you can use it optimally
and safely.
