Meiji EMZ-5 Stereo Zoom Microscope with 10X Eyepieces & 0.5X Auxiliary Lens

Set up at the bench for precision stonesetting and all-around jewelry work, this stereo zoom microscope gives a magnified three dimensional view with room underneath for hands and tools. The Meiji EMZ-5 is by far the most popular microscope in use by the jewelry industry, and this combination of body and lenses delivers the most useful magnification power, field of view, and working distance for the bench jeweler using the GRS Acrobat stand and many other types of adjustable stands in a typical jeweler's bench environment.

Jewelers recognize the outstanding build quality of the Meiji scope and the perfect focus that Meiji optics achieve. The 0.5X auxiliary lens increases working distance so your hands have room to maneuver, a critical advantage when working at the bench.

Microscope stand and light source sold separately.

Notes

A word about auxiliary lenses: Auxiliary lenses increase working distance, an important feature for jewelers working with their hands under a scope, by decreasing magnification power. The 0.5X auxiliary lens is the most common choice for bench-mounted setups using the GRS Acrobat stand, providing a comfortable working environment for jewelers seated at a bench ranging approximately 5'6" to 6'2" in height. Depending on your stand, bench and chair height, and personal preference, a different auxiliary lens power may be more suitable. Since most detailed work is performed at lower magnifications, the reduction of higher powers when using an auxiliary lens is generally not a concern. The auxiliary lens can be removed when higher magnification is needed. For prolonged use without an auxiliary lens, the 0X protective lens (129.409B) is available separately.

The following auxiliary lens options are available separately and show the resulting working distance, field of view, and magnification with 10X eyepieces:

• No lens / 0X Protective Lens (129.409B): Working Distance 93mm | Field of View 32mm–5.1mm | Magnification 7X–45X
• 0.3X Auxiliary Lens (129.411): Working Distance 251mm | Field of View 109mm–17mm | Magnification 2.1X–13.5X
• 0.44X Auxiliary Lens (129.410): Working Distance 171mm | Field of View 74.5mm–11.5mm | Magnification 3.08X–19.8X
• 0.5X Auxiliary Lens (129.412): Working Distance 148mm | Field of View 65.7mm–10.2mm | Magnification 3.5X–22.5X
• 0.75X Auxiliary Lens (129.413): Working Distance 97mm | Field of View 43.8mm–6.8mm | Magnification 5.25X–33.75X

Microscope stand and light source are sold separately.
