UNEXCELLED OPTICS, MECHANICAL RUGGEDNESS AND A VERSATILITY AS FLEXIBLE AS YOUR NEEDS These things will impress you about the Nikon S: First, as you look at it, its physical appearance; its rugged, substantial construction; its rigidity; and its obvious ability to stand up to constant use and handling. Second, as you try the controls, the smooth responsive 'feel'; the positive action; the complete absence of vibration or chatter — not the slightest trace of 'play' or 'back-lash'. And third, as you look through the eyepiece, the clear delinea tion of field; the brightness and definition of image; the visual ease; and the almost incredible resolution characteristic of Nikon optical quality. The Nikon S Microscope is a basic, practical instrument whose capabilities are as varied as your changing needs. A veritable 'workhorse' for routine applications, you can rely on the same Nikon S to qualify as a 'specialist' whenever special needs arise. The Nikon S handles dark-field as well as bright-field microscopy — phase-contrast, polarizing, inci dent light, and transmitted light interference microscopy. And with the Nikon Microflex, the S is equipped for high quality photomicrographs using famous Nikon 35mm cameras.
Note that the various component parts of the Nikon S micro scope are freely interchangeable to suit virtually any prefer ence or need. There are plain, circular floating and .rec tangular mechanical stages; 45° eyepiece tubes: monocular, binocular and trinocular; fixed substage lamp and external adjustable illuminator; and a variety of measuring accessories. The rectangular mechanical stage provides cross-wise slide movement, and is equipped with calibrated coaxial controls. One of its unique features is that it can be rotated 180° for either right-hand or left-hand operation. The standard Abbe (n.a. 1.25) condenser, supplied with the Nikon S, is equipped with a variable aperture diaphragm which can be easily centered for normal work, or decentered for oblique illumination. This consenser is also readily inter changeable for dark-field and other special types. Available optics include Huygenian and compensating eye pieces, and a full range of dry and oil-immersion objectives., including a 'no-cover-glass-corrected' 40x (n.a. 0.65).
