Why Students Love It

The Omano OM118-M3 is the quintessential microscope for students beginning and expanding their skills in the world of microscopy. It has all the professional-level features they’d need to make their skills transferable, should they decide to pursue post-secondary education in the sciences.

The OM118-M3 microscope is a compound microscope built to allow students to examine their specimens at a comfortable posture with a 45-degree ocular angle, and a microscope head that flexibly rotates 360 degrees, making in-class collaboration a breeze.

Let’s Get Optical

This is where students really get to experience the magic of microscopy. Equip your students with clear glass optics and powerful magnifications that send them on scientific adventures whenever they step foot in your class. The OM118-M3 comes with:

A WF10x eyepiece
Three achromatic objectives lenses (4x, 10x, 40x spring)
Magnification levels of 40x, 100x, and 400x
Objectives set in a triple, forward-facing nosepiece

Focus on the Stage

What makes a student microscope different from a regular microscope? It’s the little features that set a beginner microscope apart from advanced microscopy tools. Microscope.com has 25 years of experience building microscopes for students. We’ve got a good grasp on the must-have features of an excellent student microscope and built them right into the OM118-M3.

Check out these little features that make a big impact on student engagement:

A plain stage with two spring-loaded stage clips to help retain the slides.
An optional mechanical slide holder is available. We recommend this slide holder as it makes slide handling significantly easier for both younger children and teenagers alike.
Includes rack and pinion design for durability and coaxial coarse and fine focus controls, allowing a student to constantly keep their eyes on their specimen. This enhances student engagement and creates a sustained interest in the microscope.
A rack stop for increased safety. It ensures that the stage does not interfere with the objectives. This prevents potentially expensive slide breakage.
A slip clutch control to mitigate the risk of damaging the focus controls through overextension.

Farewell, Weak Illumination!

The OM118-M3 features a 0.65 N.A condenser with an Iris diaphragm for optimal adjustments, and built-in transmitted 20w incandescent illumination that includes variable intensity so students can get the illumination that works best for them.

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?

This OM118-M3 comes with a 1.3MP digital microscope camera that instantly transforms it into a digital microscope.

KoPa Cam Software

A digital microscope camera comes with robust documentation and measuring software that your students will love using to play around with their images. This Windows-only (not MAC compatible) software offers a comprehensive range of features including measuring software, drawing tools, and annotation:

Fast refresh rates (range from 15fps at 2592 x 1944 (maximum resolution) to 40fps at 1280 x 960)
Auto/manual exposure
White balance control
Fullscreen live imaging
Time-lapse photography
User-friendly image capture
Image formats: JPG, PNG, BMP, and PDF

Controls & Operation

Your students can download the KoPa Cam app for free and connect to the KoPa network within their device’s WiFi settings. The microscope camera uses an internally-located antenna to optimize the WiFi signal performance in learning environments.

The camera features a standard C-mount interface to fit any microscope with a C-mount adapter. In addition, the camera has a tripod mount on the base, allowing for use as a stand-alone imaging device (with a C-mount standard macro or zoom lens fitted). The KoPa AIR camera also features a 5000mAh lithium Ion battery, capable of operating for 8 hours on a full charge.

If you just don’t like your Omano microscope and want to send it back after a few weeks of use, do it. We’ll take it back with no questions asked.

If you have a problem with it 30 years from now, we’ll fix it. We made a decision decades ago that we would offer a lifetime limited warranty because we know we don’t have to worry about quality issues.

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
