Leica Microsystems offers accessories, education to support its digital microscope system

Leica Microsystems launched the Leica DMS300, a digital microscope system without eyepieces, in March 2013. The Leica DMS300 is a digital microscope system with an HDMI monitor. Users profit from fast live image display and acquisition as the Leica DMS300 acquires color images as well as Full HD movies with up to 30fps. It is equipped with 8:1 optical zoom and a 2.5MP camera. The company is now adding to its accessories: The Leica DMS300 is now available with an incident light base in addition to a boom stand outfit, so users have a choice of two bases for their system.

Leica is also providing more hands-on advice to users: It has prepared nine videos with detailed information on the operation of the microscope system. The topics range from assembly of the system via explanations of the various menus to remote control functions. “We show how easily the Leica DMS300 can actually be operated,” says Clinton Smith, Product Manager, Leica Microsystems. “Users get hands-on advice on how to adjust color settings, how to define camera parameters such as exposure time, date and file name or how to view images and play videos that have been saved on the SD card.” View the videos, and get more information on the Leica DMS300 system.
