Levenhuk Rainbow 50L PLUS Microscope would make a wonderful gift for an inquisitive teenager. The maximum magnification power of this instrument is 1280x – just enough to see all the tiniest details of observed microscope samples. The model features a reliable, robust body - Rainbow 50L PLUS Microscope can be used as an instrument at home, as well as for laboratory work in schools and universities.
High magnification power
The kit includes three objective lenses. The most powerful objective (40xs) is equipped with a protective spring-loaded mechanism. This mechanism ensures optics safety. Even if you lower the objective lens too much and touch the sample with it, the objective lens will retract, preventing any damage. The kit also includes 2x Barlow lens which increases the magnification two-fold. The microscope in its standard configuration produces 64x, 128x, 160x, 320x, 640x and 1280x magnification!
The optics are made of quality highly transparent glass. The lenses are coated with multiple layers of special anti-reflective coating. The images will always be bright, clear, and contrast - and that is especially important when working at high magnifications.
Combined illumination – explore a huge variety of microscope samples
This model is equipped with two LED illumination systems. The lower lighting is needed for viewing transparent samples. For example, you will be able to examine the structure of a bee’s wing or detect microorganisms in aquarium water. The upper lighting allows for observing non-transparent (opaque) objects such as paper or metal. This model can also be used for working with semi-transparent objects by using both upper and lower lighting at once. The illumination systems feature adjustable brightness.
Ergonomics and reliability
The microscope has a very reliable, robust body made of metal. The 45-degrees inclined and 360-degrees rotatable head ensures the most comfortable use of the instrument. That is especially convenient when working in a group – to get a better view, just rotate the head instead of moving the whole microscope.
This microscope can be also used outside the house – the illumination system can be powered through an outlet or with standard AA batteries.
Caution: Please refer to the specifications table for the correct mains voltage and never attempt to plug a 110V device into 220V outlet and vice versa without using a converter. Remember that mains voltage in the U.S. and Canada is 110V and 220-240V in most European countries.
Experiment kit
Levenhuk Rainbow 50L PLUS Microscope comes with a special experiment kit. The Levenhuk K50 Experiment Kit is designed for children and adult beginners to perform their first independent experiments. We recommend you to start by observing the ready-to-use microscope slides, and then, with a little bit of experience, try to prepare some specimens on your own using the tools included in the kit. The user guide has all necessary information about the microscope and its design, tips on preparing microscope slides, and detailed experiment descriptions.
