The Omano OM118-M3 is the quintessential microscope for students beginning and expanding their skills in the world of microscopy. It has all the professional-level features they’d need to make their skills transferable, should they decide to pursue post-secondary education in the sciences.
The OM118-M3 microscope is a compound microscope built to allow students to examine their specimens at a comfortable posture with a 45-degree ocular angle, and a microscope head that flexibly rotates 360 degrees, making in-class collaboration a breeze.
This is where students really get to experience the magic of microscopy. Equip your students with clear glass optics and powerful magnifications that send them on scientific adventures whenever they step foot in your class. The OM118-M3 comes with:
What makes a student microscope different from a regular microscope? It’s the little features that set a beginner microscope apart from advanced microscopy tools. Microscope.com has 25 years of experience building microscopes for students. We’ve got a good grasp on the must-have features of an excellent student microscope and built them right into the OM118-M3.
Check out these little features that make a big impact on student engagement:
If you just don’t like your Omano microscope and want to send it back after a few weeks of use, do it. We’ll take it back with no questions asked.
If you have a problem with it 30 years from now, we’ll fix it. We made a decision decades ago that we would offer a lifetime limited warranty because we know we don’t have to worry about quality issues.
Just under $150 on your order? There are dozens of small accessories you can add to your order to get that free shipping. Check out some prepared slides, slide covers, or stains.
The OM118-M3 features a 0.65 N.A condenser with an Iris diaphragm for optimal adjustments, and built-in transmitted 20w incandescent illumination that includes variable intensity so students can get the illumination that works best for them.
Technology is a part of our day-to-day lives. Weaning students off technology and putting them onto a microscope is a challenge for many educators.
What if there was a way to combine a love of technology with a passion for microscopy?
You can pair the OM118-M3 with a Summit Series digital microscope camera to make this compound microscope into a digital microscope in an instant. The Summit Series cameras are known for their remarkable color resolution and color sensitivity, meaning your students can study bright, clear, and vivid images under their scope.
In addition, the included 0.5x reducing lens makes for an image that is significantly closer to that seen through the eyepieces with the naked eye. A Summit Series camera comes with robust documentation and measuring software that your students will love using to play around with their images.
The Summit Series microscope cameras are compatible with a C/CS mount, 23mm eyepiece adapter, and 30mm and 30.5mm collars (fitting almost any other microscope).
Other features of the Summit Series microscope cameras include:
