The benefit of apochromatic correction is best witnessed with specimens that have fine, low contrasting structures such as large animal cells, plant cilia or metallic microelectronic structures. The Leica S8 APO delivers a 600 lp/mm resolution and a maximum magnification of 640x (with 2.0x auxilliary objective). Contrast, brilliance, sharpness, resolution, color fidelity and reproduction accuracy are unsurpassed. The Leica S8 APO is perfect for exacting applications, especially digital documentation and image archival and analysis. The integrated video-/phototube allows easy and rapid mounting of Leica digital cameras. Conventional film and analog video cameras achieve outstanding results as well.
The modular design allows the user to individually equip each StereoZoom® with the appropriate accessories that will optimize its performance for any application. The Leica S8 APO has an ergonomic 38 degrees viewing angle for proper posture and improved comfort. Also available are three different apochromatic auxilliary objectives, an achromatic 0.32x objective (when a long working distance is needed), various eyepieces, stands and illumination solutions.
