Zeiss Stemi 508

Your quality stereo microscope for biological and industrial routines with 8:1 zoom range - and apochromatic optics

Compact and functional. Equipped with apochromatic optics and precise mechanics designed for heavy workloads. This is your quality stereo microscope for everyday lab work and industrial inspections.

Stemi 508 displays your samples exactly as they are: rich in detail, sharp in focus and free from distortion or color fringes. Take advantage of its impressive stereoscopic image contrast. The large 8:1 zoom lets you get an overview within a 35 mm object field, then bring the detail up to 50x magnification. By adding interchangeable optics, you can observe whole specimens at sizes up to 121 mm, making Stemi 508 a top performer in its class.

But that’s not all. With its lower viewing angle of 35° Stemi 508 has better ergonomics than any other Greenough-type stereo microscope. Just stay in a relaxed working posture, even after hours of work. Stemi 508 is your robust all-rounder: easy to use, ergonomic —and always accurate.
