Vickers Long Arm Stereomicroscope
One of the classic Vickers microscopes. This is a long arm stereo with an overall magnification of x10. The long arm can be positioned on the base pole to suit the size of the specimen and the rack and pinion attached to the binocular head allows the fine focus. Behind the stereo head there is an incident light source that can be adjusted to illuminate the area that the stereo head can see. Condition good for its age.

Binocular Brunel Dual Microscope
There are not many occasions that excite microscopists, but the introduction of this dual function microscope is one of those rare events. It has always been a truth that because of the laws of light physics you need two microscopes for both slide examination and low power whole object study. This microscope manages to bridge both functions in a very clever way. Its key components are a removable circular slide stage with an integral Abbe condenser. This can be removed easily and replaced with either a black/white dissection plate or a petri dish and the whole assembly can be moved up and down the rack and pinion dovetail to massively incresae the working distance. This is to facilitate the working distance of the x2 objective which is approximately 100mm. The other objectives are x4, x10, x40 and x100 (oil immersion) that have normal short high power microscope working distances. In net effect with the standard circular stage in place this is a high power microscope with a magnification range of x40 to x1000 and suitable for slide examination. Alternatively with the circular stage removed, replaced with the petri dish and lowered, the x2 objective gives a x20 low power view suitable for whole objects that are illuminated by the flexible LED light from above. Both this light and the transmitted light have brightness control. Whilst this microscope almost ‘squares the circle’ in microscopy terms, and the x2 objective gives an image very similar to standard stereomicroscopes it is still inverted like all compound microscopes. It is therefore ideal for low power examination of whole objects but not dissection because of the inverted image.
