The Eclipse E800™ with CFI60™ optics redefines research microscopy.
Infinity optics took a quantum leap with Nikon's revolutionary, new CFI60™ technology.
Longer working distances, higher numerical apertures and the widest magnification range and
documentation field sizes ever achieved through infinity optics give you brilliant images of
breathtaking sharpness and clarity, from ultra-low to the highest magnifications.
The new performance standard for every research application.
With Nikon's recent introduction of the Eclipse E800™ and E800M™ microscopes,
you have all the advantages of infinity optics without the limitations of conventional infinity
systems. For example, the E800M's exclusive 0.5X objective lets you quickly and easily
produce 1:1 specimen documentation while still being able to insert a wide variety of accessories
directly into the optical path.
You can easily examine even the thickest specimens.
The E800's expanded parfocal length
of 60mm, increased objective diameter and optimum 200mm focal length tube lens provide you
with a working distance up to 210µm at the maximum numerical aperture of 1.4, as with our Plan
Apochromat 60X oil objective.
Exceptional ergonomics as well as superb optics.
The Eclipse E800 and E800M offer a full range of exclusive ergonomic features. With the
widest base and arm dimensions in the industry and a unique T-shape configuration, the stand
provides incomparable stability so you can add different accessory modules without affecting the
eyepiece position. In addition, focus and stage control knobs are carefully positioned for easy
one-hand operation and overall greater comfort.
The new Eclipse TE300/200™ redefines inverted microscopy.
Imagine Nikon's renowned Diaphot inverted microscopes with even greater flexibility,
improved ergonomics, more stability plus the unparalleled performance of CFI60 optics. That's
exactly what you get in the Eclipse TE300™ and TE200™ microscopes. Both feature the
highest numerical apertures and longest working distances in their categories. Both come with
standard 100-watt or optional 30-watt illuminators. And, whether you select the Eclipse TE300
with its full complement of features or the economical Eclipse TE200, each represents the
highest magnitude of stability and functionality in inverted microscopy.
Maximum control of light for the brightest, most precise images.
The Eclipse TE300's exclusive 4-position beamsplitter lets you select the amount of light
distributed to the eyepieces, side imaging port and the built-in, front-mounted 35mm SLR port.
The TE200 offers a simpler 2-way light path, so you can choose to send light to the eyepiece, or
to both the eyepiece and side-mounted port. The Eclipse TE300 offers a bottom-mounted image
port option for the highest light throughput possible, while the Eclipse TE200 offers an optional
100% side port. Both models feature shorter optical paths with less glass, and the ability to
accept our exclusive 0.8X side port for the brightest and widest fields in the industry. The newly
designed high-efficiency epi-fluorescence attachment, which can hold up to four filter cubes,
utilizes a quick-change linear slider rather than the slower turret type of most competitive
models.
The widest choice in objectives for the most flexible upgrade path.
Start with our basic level Achromat series, including LWD versions for brightfield and phase
microscopy. Or select our incomparable high transmission Plan Fluor objectives.
Our newly designed ELWD Plan Fluors, with extra long working distances and higher
numerical apertures, will outperform anything on the market.
The 60X water-immersion Plan Apo objective and 20X multi-immersion objective for water
or oil offer sophisticated approaches to high NA requirements and top spherical correction.
This extensive multi-imaging capability and flexibility, along with so much more comfort
and ease of use, make the TE300/200 series ideal for everything from tissue culture to UV
fluorescence, in-vitro fertilization, high resolution video microscopy, patch clamp techniques,
microphotometry and confocal laser scanning microscopy.
The new Eclipse E400™ redefines comfort and performance.
When it comes to basic research or clinical evaluation, the new Eclipse E400™ microscope,
with breakthrough CFI60 technology, not only pushes the optical envelope by providing the
brightest, clearest images ever, it establishes a new ergonomic standard as well.
As with other Eclipse models, all basic controls are located up front to eliminate
uncomfortable reaching. And the fine focus and stage control knobs permit one-hand operation.
The stage is 20mm lower and eyepieces are inclined at the new 25 ergonomic standard for the
most comfortable viewing experience ever. A unique variable angle tilting binocular body tube,
with adjustable eyetube position, will be available soon.
Nikon advances photomicrography.
Nikon's powerful, new H-III camera, or the more advanced U-III, will give you the best
photos ever. And they'll do it faster, easier and less expensively, without the long learning curve
|
The new U-III and H-III photo systems offer an array of advanced features to enhance documentation.
|
other cameras require. Among the U-III's full complement of features which, along with your
photographic data, can be accessed from your PC are:
5 exposure metering modes, including 2 scanning types.
LCD prompting display.
An auto bright view-finder that minimizes the effect of room light during composition.
Advanced auto bracketing and manual exposure systems.
Simple macro programming capability.
Data printing on photos. The choice is obvious. Spend your time perfecting your technique
with other cameras, or document your work faster, more easily, more effectively, and at lower
costs with Nikon's U-III or H-III cameras.
The new Eclipse E600™ redefines research versatility.
The unprecedented acceptance of the E800 underscores the enormous benefits of CFI60
technology. For those who don't require the advanced features of the Eclipse E800, but want
maximum flexibility in configuring a microscope for a multitude of research applications, Nikon
introduces the Eclipse E600™ microscope. This mid-sized, fully featured microscope offers a
full array of accessories to support all optical techniques including DIC, dual-viewing, multi-viewing, double port, drawing tube, magnification changer, and the brightest epi-fluorescence
available.
Furthermore, it's so versatile you can virtually custom design it to meet both your current
and future needs...simply, easily and economically.
Chromatic-aberration-free optics.
The superiority of CFI60 optical technology provides extreme sharpness and color focus over
the entire field of view, and you can utilize multiple contrast techniques both individually and in
combined applications with new universal Plan Fluor objectives.
A microscope that grows as
your needs grow.
Start with the Eclipse E600 main body, which establishes a new standard for ergonomics and
mechanical/thermal stability. Next, choose from over 60 new CFI60 objectives, including Plan
Apochromats, Plan Fluors, Plan Achromats and super Flat Field Achromats, as well as specialty
objectives, such as water immersion or the only 1X objective available in the industry. Then add
the options you need, most of which are compatible with all other Eclipse models.
More choices; better performance; an appropriate price.
Before you consider any research microscope, compare it - feature for
feature, benefit for benefit - with the remarkable Eclipse E600:
U-III Features
Highest signal-to-noise fluorescence.
In-line focusing and stage controls.
More comfortable 25° binocular viewing angle.
Ultra-wide 25mm standard field of view on trinocular body.
Stage height 20mm lower than previous models.
Adjustable X,Y stage controls positioned low for comfort and ease of use.
