Olympus Inverted Metallographs GX51 & GX71 Specifications
Excellent optical performance and versatility
The GX series is the first inverted metallurgical microscope range offered by Olympus with infinity-corrected optics. These instruments produce excellent image quality and feature a modular design, enabling users to construct configurations specific to their needs.
GX71
Primarily intended for research use, the GX71 features a super-wide field, zooming, erect image and a mirror cube turret for brightfield, darkfield, DIC, polarized light, and fluorescence observation.
GX51
Designed for more basic applications in research and inspection, the GX51 has a single lever switchover for brightfield/darkfield observation, and the ability to add many optional features
