BAUSCH & LOMB 300X is a highly advanced compound microscope built and manufactured by the U.S.-based brand BAUSCH & LOMB in the 1950s. It is one of the most iconic microscopes, widely used in science research, industry, and medical environments. It is composed of three distinct parts: a metal base, a boom arm, and a dome optical head. 300X employs a compound optical system that allows the user to achieve high magnification of up to 100x. The optical system is composed of two separate system components: a primary lens and a secondary lens. The primary lens is also known as the objective lens, which is totally internal and is made of fine solid glass. It is focused by simply turning the large knob, which adjusts the focus of the objective lens. The secondary lens, commonly known as the eyepiece, is externally located and controlled via a smaller focusing knobs. This eyepiece lens attaches to the primary lens and produces a magnified image. The optical head of BAUSCH & LOMB 300X is composed of two achromatic objectives that are situated close together. The objectives are powered by two independent and perpendicularly arranged armatures, which allow them to be focused independently. The optical power of each objective is 500mm to 1000mm, depending on the model and the fluidity of operation. Each objective can magnify up to 300X when used in tandem. The metal base sports an ample work-surface for convenient placement of slides and other objects. It also features a built-in light source, so no external lighting is necessary. The built-in light source is adjustable, offering a range of brightness from low to high settings. The boom arm of BAUSCH & LOMB 300X features a sturdy steel-structured armature and a powerful motor capable of keeping up with the user's movements. This allows the user to easily adjust the range and height of the microscope. The arm offers an extended reach of 96-inches, which is sufficient enough even for the tallest users. Not only is 300X a versatile microscope, but it is also highly durable. Thanks to its steel construction, it can stand up to many years of use without showing signs of wear or tear. Its advanced optics, wide range of adjustable functions, and sturdy base make it the ideal microscope for any lab environment.
