microscope objective iScope IS.8804 — Euromex, 4x, 15.4 mm working distance

The microscope objective iScope IS.8804 is a low-power objective from Euromex engineered for overview imaging and routine inspection, offering a balance of field size and handling space suitable for laboratory, education and workshop microscopy

• 4x magnification for low-power overview
• 15.4 mm working distance for ample sample space
• Numerical aperture 0.10 for improved resolution

Efficient overview imaging for faster inspection

Low-power optics at 4x magnification enable rapid scanning of samples and quick location of regions of interest, reducing inspection time in routine workflows. The broad field of view associated with low magnification supports efficient visual surveys of slides, larger specimens and mounted parts; this is particularly valuable in teaching environments and production checks where speed and repeatability matter. The optical design emphasises clarity across the full image circle so operators can identify areas requiring higher magnification without time-consuming adjustments.

Practical handling with a generous working distance

A 15.4 mm working distance provides practical clearance between the objective front and the specimen, allowing for light sources, probes or specimen holders to be used without risk of collision. In applied settings this reduces handling interruptions and supports the safe use of manipulators or polarising accessories. The extra space also eases focus adjustments and reduces the need for frequent re-positioning of samples, improving throughput in routine inspection and educational demonstrations while preserving focus stability.

Understanding the optical balance: aperture and depth of field

The numerical aperture of 0.10 defines the objective's ability to gather light and resolve fine detail; a moderate NA like this offers a compromise between resolution and depth of field. Practically, this means good contrast and sufficient resolving power for low-power tasks while retaining a forgiving depth of field that keeps uneven or slightly thicker specimens in acceptable focus. For users unfamiliar with the term, numerical aperture correlates directly with resolving power — higher NA typically improves detail but reduces focus tolerance.

Built for everyday laboratory and teaching use

Part of the iScope series by Euromex, this objective combines straightforward optical performance with a form factor suited to routine use. The specification set—4x magnification, 15.4 mm working distance, numerical aperture 0.10—supports a wide range of basic microscopy tasks without unnecessary complexity, making it suitable for instrument fleets in training rooms, inspection benches and general-purpose labs. The result is consistent low-power imaging that integrates into standard microscope setups for dependable daily operation.
