NOTE
Adjusting the aperture iris diaphragm increases the contrast of
the observed image as well as the depth of focus.
However, setting the aperture iris diaphragm too narrowly
degrades resolution.
Adjust the aperture iris diaphragm ring
a
to the left or right.
Rotating the ring toward the left (
) opens the aperture; rotating it
toward the right (
) closes it. Adjust while monitoring the observed
image to confirm the contrast and focal depth improvement effects.
Do not close the aperture too much, for this may cause
degradation in resolution and/or lack of ambient light.
Use the scale gradations as references for memorizing the ring position.
When the microscope is combined with the coaxial
vertical illuminator (SZX2-ILLC16), minimizing the aperture
may obscure a part of the observed field of view. In this
case, open the aperture to an intermediate position.
