Comparison Microscope

Leica FS4000
Overview

The Leica FS4000 comparison microscope is the next step in trace evidence examination in forensic science laboratories. It combines the latest opto-mechanical developments in light microscopy with unsurpassed ease of use and ergonomics in an integrated solution. This allows the user to fully concentrate on his work while achieving results with highest accuracy and efficiency.

The Leica FS4000 comparison microscope allows highly precise comparison of two objects at magnification up to 1500x and gives reliable proof of slightest differences in the microstructure, texture and colour. All common contrasting techniques like fluorescence, polarisation and brightfield are available and can be selected in a fraction of a second. Different viewing modes like side by side, superimposed image and mix image can be applied by pressing only one button. Your know-how combined with our comparison equipment - an unbeatable combination.

Bridge functions and comparison modes

The automated comparison bridge provides one button control of all functions: full left and right image, split image mode with variable dividing line (width and position), superimposed image mode. Together with the Variolux system, the new color neutral beam splitter prism in bridge provides highest optical fidelity. And, last but not least to mention, the built-in tilting ergo tube for relaxed and effective working.

Clarity Wherever You Look

All the settings of both Leica DM4000 stands can be seen at a glance in the clearly laid out display. All functions and controls are in easy reach for the user. To give an example: switching from brightfield to fluorescence involves only pushing one button behind the focus knob of each microscope. All necessary adjustments are set automatically without further interaction with the user. As a result, the speed and efficiency of comparison microscopy tasks is increased.
