WPI’s PZMIV stereo microscope is an ideal tool for tissue dissection, cell injection,
specimen manipulation, electrode inspection and many other applications
requiring a magnified stereo view and ample working distance. It offers quality and
performance at an affordable price. Advanced optics provide image sharpness found

PZMIV uses a modular, parallel-beam path design and a high quality optical system.
The advanced optical design with plan achromatic objectives provides sharp and
distortion-free image throughout the entire zoom range. The ergonomic design
makes it easy to use—zooming is smooth and effortless, controlled by a large spring-
loaded knob.
The PZMIV is available in a binocular or trincocular version. In addition, an
extensive list of optional accessories is available that makes the PZMIV suitable for
integrated optical and biological research. A variety of PZMIV microscope kits are

The microscope comes with a track stand, standard 10x eyepieces (wide-field,
