Low Power Microscopes.com announces it has the biggest
selection of stereoscopic microscopes being sold on the internet.

(St. Louis, Missouri) Low Power Microscopes.com, the
leading microscope source for stereoscopic microscopes, announces it has the biggest
selection of stereoscopic microscopes being sold on the internet. Low Power
Microscopes.com carries microphotography capable trinocular port stereoscopes,
binocular stereo microscopes, zoom stereo microscopes, and other varied fixed
magnification model microscopes.

Low power microscopes, as opposed to high power microscopes, have a magnification
power of 7x up to 45x using 10x eyepieces. In the event that higher magnifying
power is needed, 15x, 20x or 25x eyepieces are fitted into the microscope to
increase magnifying power up to a factor of 2.5x. Low power microscopes can
achieve magnification power of up to 200x using higher power eyepieces combined with
higher power bottom objective lens. An extra bottom Barlow objective lens can be
installed in the microscope to further affect the magnification power.

Low power microscopes are also able to render a three dimensional stereoscopic
view, mainly because they are stereoscopic microscopic. A three dimensional
stereoscopic image is achieved by having two microscope objectives pick up the
light, then have each objective have its own independent light path to the eyepiece,
typically, this means that the image of the objective on the right side only goes
into the right eyepiece. This results in greater depth perception, and greater
depth perception gives a much more realistic and detailed image.

Low power microscopes almost always have two eyepieces, as opposed to high power
microscopes that mostly only have one eyepiece. Low power microscopes are capable
of much longer working distances, typically as much as 100mm and more when operated
with bottom reduction objective lens. This distance means certain tools, such as
soldering irons, can be placed under the objective and utilized on the specimen to
achieve precision operations, which cannot be done with high power microscopes.
