Overview The SMZ800N is a stereomicroscope with an 8:1 optical zoom (1×–8×) designed for industrial inspection, failure analysis and materials research. It provides high-resolution images across the zoom range and supports desktop use or machine integration.
Applications - Failure analysis and root-cause investigation of electronic components
- Surface inspection, crack and corrosion detection
- Quality assurance for aerospace, automotive, electronics and construction parts
- Materials, composites and textile inspection
Product highlights - 8:1 optical zoom delivering wide magnification coverage and large field of view (1–8×)
- Consistent image sharpness with minimal chromatic aberration using Plan Apo WF and ED Plan WF objectives
- Large field of view at low magnification and reliable high-magnification performance for QA and integration
- Compatibility with Nikon Digital Sight cameras and a wide range of incident/transmitted illumination and stands
- Ergonomic design with variable-angle observation tubes and operator-oriented controls
Core features - Double-objective changer nosepiece enabling observation over an extended magnification range without moving the sample; on-axis vertical view for plan imaging of holes or pin structures
- Eight available objectives (Plan Apo 0.5×/WF; Plan Apo 0.75×/WF; Plan Apo 1×/WF; ED Plan 1.5×/WF; ED Plan 2×/WF; Plan 1×; ED Plan 0.75×; Achro 0.5×) for flexible depth of focus and long working distances
- Various eyepieces (C-W10×B, C-W15×, C-W20×, C-W30×) and tube options (binocular, trinocular, tilting trinocular)
- Extensive accessory support for cameras, illumination and stands
