FAQ - Frequently Asked Questions

For this application we recommend the BRESSER Erudit DLX 40-1000x microscope in combination with a USB camera, e.g. the BRESSER MikroCam 1.3 MP. This solution offers better image quality and flexibility than a simple LCD microscope.

If you want to identify bacteria, it is usually more useful to create a culture. Microscopes are generally only sufficient to determine whether the bacteria are, for example, spherical or rod-shaped.
The Barlow lens is already installed in the eyepiece tube on many devices. It can be pulled out at the upper ridge to use the zoom function.
Possible causes:
 
  • Sample too thick / unsuitable: Use thin samples or fixed smears.
  • No cover glass or incorrect thickness: Objectives are optimized for cover glasses.
  • Condenser incorrectly adjusted: Do not open the diaphragm too far – otherwise contrast will be low.
  • Magnification too high: Rule of thumb: maximum 1000 × objective aperture. Example: With a 40x objective with aperture 0.65, the limit is about 650x.

BRESSER Microscope Camera MikroCam MINI Full HD HDMI with Full HD MINI HDMI Display (13.3")
Practical set consisting of the MikroCam Mini HDMI and a 13.3" monitor that can be mounted directly on the camera. It is ideal for presentations and documentation. The camera has a C-Mount connection. Therefore, an adapter may be required.The Microscope Camera in DetailThe MikroCam MINI Full HD HDMI is a particularly compact HDMI camera. A PC or laptop is not required to operate the camera; you can simply connect the MikroCam MINI Full HD HDMI to an existing monitor, TV, projector or smartboard. This makes it ideal for use in teaching. Alternatively, a small monitor from BRESSER can also be mounted directly on the camera (see item no. 5914120). The HDMI connection is easy to make and the camera is ready to use immediately. No software installation, PC setup, etc. is necessary. Thanks to the lossless data transmission, very good image quality is achieved and the image always has a consistently high frame rate of 60 fps and is delay-free. This is particularly advantageous when a microscope workstation is to be digitised, for example in quality control or manufacturing. The supplied USB mouse is connected for control. This allows the three menus (camera settings, measurement* and display) to be controlled. *To take measurements with the camera, a calibration slide is required (e.g. item no.: 5916710 or 5916720). The camera is also very suitable for presentations, as it operates in automatic mode when the mouse is not connected. The menus and mouse pointer are then not visible. Please note that a direct PC connection is not possible. An HDMI to USB video capture device is required for this. The USB port is only used to control the camera with the mouse. MICROSCOPE CAMERA FEATURES HDMI connection for direct connection to a monitor, TV, projector or smartboard C-Mount thread for easy adaptability to various microscopes (manufacturer-independent) Compatible with USB sticks or SD card readers (max. storage size: 512 GB) No PC/laptop necessary MICROSCOPE CAMERA SCOPE OF DELIVERY MikroCam MINI Full HD HDMI with C-Mount connection Power supply (12 V / 2A) USB mouse HDMI cable (approx. 1.5 m) The Display in DetailThe Full HD display is the ideal complement to the BRESSER MikroCam Pro HDMI and MINI HDMI The display can be mounted directly on the camera with an adjustable holder. The screen delivers brilliant images without artefacts, as the display has the same resolution as the output image of the camera. With the set of MikroCam and HDMI display, almost any trinocular microscope with camera connection can be upgraded to a digital microscope. This allows observation independently of a PC. The size of the display is optimally chosen so that the microscope user can microscope as usual and simultaneously view the image on the monitor. The display delivers optimal image quality with a wide viewing angle of 178°! This allows several people to view the image without loss of quality. The image from the microscope camera is displayed on the HDMI screen always delay-free and with a high refresh rate of 60 FPS. Displaying via HDMI microscope camera on an HDMI monitor is therefore usually of better quality than using a USB camera on a laptop or PC. This is particularly advantageous when work under microscopic control is to be carried out. Many users also benefit from the improved ergonomics when the image can be viewed on the HDMI display. Especially higher magnifications with their high numerical aperture are unpleasant for eye problems such as floaters (vitreous opacities). Digital viewing can provide relief here. The display can be powered with the supplied Y-cable using the same power supply as the camera. A suitable, short, angled HDMI cable is also included, so cable clutter at the workstation is avoided. The mounting on a MikroCam PRO or MINI is done using two screws. Screws and tools are included. DISPLAY FEATURES 16:9 Full HD monitor with a resolution of 1920 x 1080 pixels Active area: 16.5 x 29.4 cm Easy mounting directly on a MikroCam PRO or MINI Wide viewing angle (178°) No separate power supply necessary DISPLAY SCOPE OF DELIVERY 13.3" display HDMI cable Y-cable for power supply via camera power supply Mounting screws (2 pieces) Allen key Operating instructions

EXPLORE SCIENTIFIC Deep Sky Astro Camera 26MP
High resolution deep sky camera with large SONY EXMOR IMX-571 APS-C CMOS sensor and active cooling. This camera's extreme sensitivity is achieved through SONYs backside illumination technology. This camera should appeal to both advanced users and those looking to move up from DSLRs for more serious deep sky imaging.Enter the world of astrophotography now. With the new EXPLORE SCIENTIFIC Deep Sky Astro camera you get a modern complete package for straightforward shooting of astro photos and videos. Finally, an easy-to-use camera for capturing galaxies, star clusters, the moon and even planets with high resolution and low sensor noise. Thanks to the fast USB 3.0 computer interface, all image data is transferred within a few seconds. Long waiting times for images are now history. Simply connect the camera to your telescope using the T2 female thread (M42, 0.75 mm) or the supplied 2" (50.8 mm) plug-in adapter and after installing the drivers and the included EXPLORE Capture recording and editing software, you are ready to take the first real astro photos with a highly specialized camera for your application.  The EXPLORE Capture Pro software included in this package not only offers the basic functions required for image and video capture, but also many helpful special functions for image post-processing and camera setup. Functions such as live image display, exposure settings, white balance, dark image subtraction, stacking, timelapse recording and much more can be configured individually. This very sophisticated software makes your entry into astrophotography really easy. With the automatic settings you can produce absolutely presentable results without any previous knowledge. As soon as you feel confident, simply switch off the automatic settings and gradually explore the software's more individual professional settings. The new EXPLORE SCIENTIFIC Deep Sky camera has a highly sensitive and very low-noise SONY EXMOR IMX-571 APS-C CMOS Sensor, which can be cooled down to 40 °C below ambient temperature by the two-stage thermoelectric cooling. In contrast to normal DSLR cameras, this guarantees much lower noise and fewer hot pixels in your shots. The images are not only much sharper and more brilliant, but also contain more usable image information. Through the carefully automatically-controlled setting of the desired camera temperature, the it's easy to create of dark frames which can be re-used under similar shooting conditions - speeding up your processing considerably. The large-format CMOS sensor with 28.3 mm diagonal also allows large image fields and simplifies the adjustment and centering of objects considerably. The secret to the high light sensitivity of this camera is SONY's new back illuminated EXMOR CMOS sensor. It increases the quantum efficiency to up to 80 % at 533 nm, which leads to an extremely high sensitivity and subsequently particularly bright and high-contrast photos.The camera has a built-in USB hub with 2 x USB 2.0 ports at the rear. Connect your additional autoguider camera or motor focus etc. via a short USB cable and reduce the risk of cable tangles and cable breaks. Separate cable connections between your accessories and your computer are no longer necessary. A sturdy hard case for the camera plus accessories is also included. IMPORTANT NOTES: Don't get confused by the megapixel data and the contrary price structure. In the field of astronomy, the key criterion is not the sensor resolution but the maximum light sensitivity. The main goal is to capture as much light as possible in a short time.DOWNLOAD latest camera software and drivers see download folder "Manuals" or here: https://www.touptek-astro.com/downloads Sample photos made by Lóránd Fényes in Hungary: https://fenyeslorand.hu/m31/https://fenyeslorand.hu/ic349_merope_nebula/https://fenyeslorand.hu/asztrofotok/Field of view for different focal lengths in arc minutes and degrees: 400 mm - 201´ x 135´  (3.4 x 2.3 degrees)500 mm - 161´ x 108´  (2.7 x 1.8 degrees)600 mm - 134´ x 90´  (2.2 x 1.5 degrees)700 mm - 115´ x 77´  (1.9 x 1.3 degrees)800 mm - 100´ x 67´  (1.7 x 1.1 degrees)900 mm -  89´ x 60´  (1.5 x 1.0 degrees)1000 mm - 80´ x 54´  (1.3 x 0.9 degrees)1250 mm - 64´ x 43´  (1.1 x 0.7 degrees)1500 mm - 53´ x 36´  (0.9 x 0.6 degrees)1750 mm - 46´ x 31´  (0.8 x 0.5 degrees)2000 mm - 40´ x 27´  (0.7 x 0.45 degrees)FEATURESCamera type: ASTRO Colour Camera 26.0MP ATR3CMOS16000KPA Data output: single pictures and video Image Sensor: SONY EXMOR IMX-571 CMOS Colour Sensor Adjustable resolution: 6224x4168 / 3104x2084 / 2064x1386 Adjustable binning: 1x1 / 2x2 / 3x3 Frame rate per second (FBS): 6.8 / 28 / 63 Physical sensor size in pixels: 6224 x 4168diaginal: 28.3 mmMegapixel: 26 MP Sensor size: 23.48 x 15.67 mm (APS-C format)Pixel size: 3.76 µm x 3.76 µm Bit depth: 8 Bit / 16 BitBackfocus: 17.5 mm  Shutter Type: rolling shutterInternal camera memory: 512MB DDR 3 RAMThermoelectric cooling with fan: yes, up to 40°C below ambient temperature Adjustable exposure times: 150µs to 60min Operating temperature: -10 to +50°C (30-80% RLH) Cable length USB 3.0: 150cm DC cable length power supply: 200cm CNC machined aluminium housing Camera diameter: 80mm; length: 102mm Camera weight: 0.53 kg Camera connection diameter: 2.0 inch ( 50.8mm) Camera connection thread: T2 (M42x0,75mm) Filter thread: Yes, 2.0 inch in receptacle Camera connection to PC: USB 3.0 Built-in USB hub with 2 x USB 2.0 ports Power supply: Power supply 12 Volt 3,0 Ampere included Software: EXPLORE Capture included Camera driver and ASCOM driver includedOperating system: WINDOWS 10 + 11 PC requirements: CPU Intel Core2 2.8Ghz or higher / 2 GB Ram / USB 3.0 WHAT'S INCLUDEDDeep Sky Astro Camera 26.0MP Telescope adapter T2 thread to 2.0" (50,8mm) USB 3.0 connection cable 150cm Power supply 230V/12V 3.0A Dust cap Software CD Hard case Instruction manual
