Why Students Love It

The Omano OM-118-M4 monocular microscope is the sister microscope to the OM118-M3 but with an additional 100x objective lens and a mechanical slide holder for easier slide handling. Recommended for K-12, students love this microscope because of its durable build, and its unique combination of features that make it an inspiring perfect learning tool.

Packed with Optimal Optics for Students

The Omano OM118-M4 is a high-power monocular microscope used for viewing cellular structures on slides. This student compound microscope features:

An ocular angled at an ergonomic 45 degrees that rotates through 360 degrees for flexible viewing.
A single WF10x eyepiece that combines four achromatic objectives lenses (4x, 10x, 40x spring, 100x spring oil immersion).
Magnification levels of 40x, 100x, 400x and 1,000x.

Goodbye, Weak Illumination!

The OM118-M4 is built with a professional Abbe 1.25 N.A condenser to train students how to use professional-grade tools, should they decide to pursue further education in the sciences.

It also includes transmitted 20w incandescent illumination that allows for variable intensity.

Focus on the Stage

The OM118-M4 includes a plain stage with a mechanical slide holder that enables easy slide movements on the stage, perfect for inexperienced or beginner students.

The focusing mechanism on the OM118-M4 is unique, and built to keep students focused and engaged. The mechanism features a rack and pinion design for durability and coaxial coarse and fine focus controls. We recommend coaxial coarse/fine focus controls since they enable 'eyes down' focusing. In other words, the viewer does not constantly need to look up in order to find the other focus control.

Additional safety features include:

A rack stop to ensure that the stage does not interfere with the objectives and cause damage to the slide.
A slip clutch control to mitigate the risk of damaging the focus controls through overextension.

Swap Out that Hard Eyepiece for Soft Imaging

Technology is a part of our day-to-day lives. Weaning students off technology and putting them onto a microscope is a challenge for many educators.

What if there was a way to combine a love of technology with a passion for microscopy?

You can pair the OM118-M4 with a digital microscope camera to make this compound microscope into a digital microscope in an instant. The Summit Series cameras are known for their remarkable color resolution and color sensitivity, meaning your students can study bright, clear, and vivid images under their scope.

In addition, the 0.5x reducing lens makes for an image that is significantly closer to that seen through the eyepieces with the naked eye. A microscope camera comes with robust documentation and measuring software that your students will love using to play around with their images.

Other features of microscope cameras include:

Fast refresh rates
Auto/manual exposure
White balance control
Fullscreen live imaging
Time-lapse photography
User-friendly image capture

Compound Microscope Digital Camera

The OptixCam Summit K2 series digital microscope camera turns your optical microscope into a fully-functional digital microscope. Plug it into your computer’s USB port and it automatically powers up. Your workflow becomes more user-friendly, more ergonomic, and perfect for collaboration.

This digital microscope camera lets you sit back and study samples on screen, without hunching over the eyepiece. In routine life science applications, you capture remarkably clean images that are ideal for cataloging and recording for posterity. It allows you to save and document images in industrial or medical reports, with easy annotation right from the included software. It transforms biology classes into launchpads for exploration by enabling students to see and share easily.

A dynamic range of 1.3 to 14 megapixels for big deals and small details.

The details matter to us just as much as they matter to you. That’s why we carry a range of versatile microscope cameras with multiple resolution options, making these cameras easy on the eyes and easy on your budget (if that’s what you need) too.

Summit K2 cameras range from:

Low (1.3) megapixels, suitable for hobbyists, classrooms, and other applications where affordability, durability, and good resolution are most important.
Medium (3.1) megapixels, suitable for biological research and industrial applications that require an excellent mix of visibility and affordability.
Mid (5.0) megapixels, suitable for industrial inspectors and life science researchers who have departmental budget constraints, but need sharp images and easy functionality.
High (10) megapixels, suitable for healthcare professionals and researchers with a greater budget who require high resolution image projection in large-format applications.
Advanced (14) megapixels, suitable for complex microbiological applications where performance and image quality are all that matters.

Built around the superior Aptina MT9T001 CMOS color sensor.

Rigged with high-resolution Aptina MT9T001 CMOS color sensors, Summit K2 digital microscope cameras deliver vivid and vibrant images, even in low-light environments, and allow you to manipulate images while maintaining true-to-life colors and textures.

Compatible with PC and MAC.

Connect and power up easily through USB 2.0, no external power required, and dig into your work with the included K2View software (PC only). It’s built to make your workflow easier, with features like:

Geometric measuring using lines, circles, and angles that are scaled to your magnification level in real time.
Notation, so all the important info you need to package with your images is right where it needs to be.
Anti-flicker, so images look sharp under a variety of ambient lighting.
Time-lapse photography so you can easily batch images together, tracking changes as you go.
Auto/manual exposure, making it easy to get the image you need.
White balance control, so the images you capture look the way they should.
Storage in JPG, BMP, TIFF, TGA, and RAW format, so images can be used across a range of platforms.

The cameras also work just fine with your existing TWAIN, DirectX, and Image Capture (MAC only) software. You can also download K2View from our site.

Excellent image reproduction with 0.5x Reducing Lens.

No fuss, just focus. Many competitively priced digital microscope cameras magnify the image through the eyepiece, so the image you see on your monitor doesn’t accurately represent what you see looking down the scope with your own eyes. That’s not good enough for you. We counter that by including a 0.5x reducing lens. This prevents over-magnification and produces real images. You can trust what you see.

Summit K2 series digital microscope cameras already work in applications spanning industries. They can be retrofitted onto most existing optical microscope models, and come standard on Omano digital microscopes.

They add some swagger to your passion for microscopy and make sharing a lot easier. You don’t have to go on your microscopy adventures alone anymore.

Compatibility:

Includes 23mm C mount adapter (additional adapters can be purchased to fit future microscopes)
Optional calibration slide for accurate measurements

Modern Technology:

Built with a sturdy aluminum alloy body
Fast refresh rates (30-50 frames per second) during video recording
Full-screen live imaging to maximize your visual experience
