The Labomed LX 300 LED Trinocular Microscope is a high-performance instrument tailored for advanced research, high-volume pathology, and collaborative digital learning environments. This model integrates the precision mechanics and high-grade optics of the LX 300 series—often featuring Plan Achromatic objectives for superb field flatness—with a dedicated third viewing port. This configuration makes it immediately ready for digital integration, allowing the simultaneous attachment of a microscopy camera for image analysis, documentation, and live video feeds to external monitors or networks. The LX 300 Trinocular is built for heavy-duty, long-duration use, featuring ergonomic design and the superior color clarity of LED illumination, positioning it as a powerful yet affordable alternative to premium brands for institutions globally, particularly in growing markets like Southeast Asia and the Middle East.

What are the benefits of using Plan Achromatic objectives?
Plan Achromat objectives provide a significantly flatter field of view, meaning the image remains sharp and in focus from the center to the edges, which is critical for accurate digital imaging and analysis.
Is the LX 300 Trinocular compatible with older camera models?
As long as the camera uses a standard C-mount adapter, it will be physically compatible with the trinocular port. However, optimal performance requires modern, high-resolution USB or HDMI cameras.
How does this model compare to the Olympus CX23 Trinocular?
The Labomed LX 300 TR often includes higher-grade Plan Achromat optics than the standard
Olympus CX23 TR, offering superior image flatness, though both provide excellent value and reliability.
What maintenance does the LED illumination require?
The LED source is virtually maintenance-free, offering tens of thousands of hours of use. It eliminates the need for frequent bulb replacement and maintains consistent color temperature, unlike halogen lamps.
Can this microscope be adapted for Fluorescence microscopy?
While primarily designed for Brightfield, the LX 300 structure may support external fluorescence attachments. However, for dedicated fluorescence, specialized microscopes are typically recommended. For comparison, view the
Olympus CX43 Phase Contrast model for specialized optics.
