Figuring Total Magnification

Magnifying Objects/ Focusing Image:

When viewing a slide through the microscope make certain that the phase is all the mode down and the 4X scanning objective is locked into place.
Place the slide that you desire to view over the discontinuity and gently move the phase clips over tiptop of the slide to hold it into place.
Beginning with the 4X objective, looking through the eyepiece making sure to go on both optics open (if yous have problem cover 1 eye with your hand) slowly move the phase upward using the coarse adjustment knob until the paradigm becomes articulate. This is the only time in the process that you will need to use the coarse aligning knob. The microscopes that you volition be using are parfocal, meaning that the image does non need to be radically focused when irresolute the magnification.
To magnify the prototype to the next level rotate the nosepiece to the 10X objective. While looking through the eyepiece focus the epitome into view using only the fine aligning knob, this should only take a slight turn of the fine aligning knob to consummate this task.
To magnify the epitome to the next level rotate the nosepiece to the 40X objective. While looking through the eyepiece focus the prototype into view using only the fine aligning knob, this should only take a slight turn of the fine adjustment knob to complete this task.

Full Magnification:

To figure the total magnification of an epitome that you are viewing through the microscope is actually quite simple. To get the total magnification take the power of the objective (4X, 10X, 40x) and multiply by the power of the eyepiece, usually 10X.
