Combinations of Objectives and
Eyepieces
Total magnifying power obtained by the combination is the product of
individual objective power multiplied by individual eyepiece power. A
selection
of the combination
will
be decided so as to get the highest
resolution of the image (resolving power), the largest extent of object
area
(real field) which can be observed without moving the stage or
slide,
or the greatest thickness of object (depth of focus) which can
be
distinctly
seen
without raising or lowering the microscope stage,
depending
upon the purpose of using the microscope. Shown below
are
the results compiled
from
the different combinations of objectives
and
eyepieces:

The working distance is the
clearance
between the upper surface of the
cover
glass
and the lowest edge of the objective critically focused. Note
that, as shown in the above table, the working distance becomes very
small
for
high
power objectives.
The resolution of minimum resolved distance (the limit of resolving power)
is
the minimum distance between object points discernible as separate
under
the microscope illuminated by the
light
of wave length
550myu.
The shorter the
light
wave length, the higher the resolving power, that
is,
the small resolving distance results. In the table, the smaller values
indicate
the resolution obtained by oblique and the larger values by
central
illumination, (see "Illumination" on page 11)
#The
minimum resolved distance in the image is the value in the object
multiplied by the total magnification of the microscope. If the resolving
power of the microscope is important, choose the eyepiece by the use
of which the image resolution comes
within
that of the naked eye
0.15
—0.3mm
(when the object is
seen
from
the distance
