The ATMOS i View is a complete microscope system consisting of optics and lighting. It produces outstanding pictures for exami-
nation purposes with the use of latest LED technology and patent registered optics. The interaction between the integrated fanless,
high-transmission,high-performanceLED,theapochromaticoptics,andthepreciselyadaptedoptionso󰀨erbestworkingquality.
The ergonomically arranged buttons, two selectable hand grip variants, and the integrated control panel provide the user with high-
est level of ergonomic comfort and suitability for daily use as well as outstanding and intuitive handling. Via the control panel, the
individual options of the ATMOS i View can be activated. Besides triggering the camera (freeze frame) and starting/stopping possi-
blevideosequences,theoperatoriscapableofmanuallyswitchingtheLEDlightsourceonando󰀨despitetheactivatedautomatic
lightcontrol.DuetothevarietyofoptionstheATMOSiViewhastoo󰀨er,theuserisinapositiontocongureamicroscopetosuit
his or her requirements. The following functions can be chosen optionally:
• 4lenseswithdi󰀨erentxedfocaldistances(200,250,300,and400mm)withorwithoutnefocusingoraVarioFocuslens
200–500 mm
• Binocular tube (0° or 45° angle)
• Pivotingcolorlter
• Measuring scale
• Shadowless illumination
Due to the LED light source and the integrable camera solution (HD integrated respectively as HD or endoscope adapter for the
connection of an external camera), the ATMOS i View is a guarantor for best image quality.
