Objectives

The objectives are the optical heart of the microscope. The objectives may be labeled as follows:
Plan-ACHROMAT 10x/0.25 ∞/-.
Where:
10× Objective magnification,
with a defined color ring on the
objective being assigned to each
magnification step (Carl Zeiss color code)
0.25 Numerical aperture
∞

D = 0.17 mm
Other labels:

Objective magnification multiplied by eyepiece magnification results in overall visual magnification, e.g.
10 x 10 = 100x.
Numerical aperture multiplied by 1000, e.g. 0.25 × 1000 = 250×, presents the maximum useful
magnification; there is no resolution for further details above that limit.
When immersion objectives are used, the air between the cover glass and the objective is replaced by a
liquid, which in most cases is immersion oil. The plastic oiler containing 5 ml of immersion oil is
particularly suitable for this purpose.
Because of their short working distances, the 20x, 20x/Ph 2, 40x, 40x/Ph 2, 100x,100x/Oil, and 100x/Ph 3
Oil objectives are equipped with resilient mounts for specimen protection.
