In response to numerous demands &am the scientific and

industrial communities, OLYMPUS, a leading manufacturer

of quality microscopes and other precisian imtrumen'ts, takes
p a t prides in introducingthe new System Microscope Series
Brl.
Development of the Series Bh .m~croscope$has been a~
cornplished by the joint efforts of industrial designers and
the ercperiened OLYMPUS a p t i d and mechanical engineer- .

The observation tubes are designed to
match the streamlined appearance of
the microscope stands for ease of
operation, reliable performance and
outstanding durability. The binocular

300 or 45' inclination.
A 30'-inclined super widefield tube is
also available to scan a flat field of
view 260% larger than with the stand-

very convenient in biological research
as well as routine work, for it will
increase the efficiency and speed of
microscopic work without undesirable

Photomicrographic System Camera 1 MODEL PM-10
The PM-10 System Camera combines the features and
advantages of many separate conventional attachment
cameras, ranging from 35 mm camera back to 4" x 5" film
holders. The Model PM-10 consists of two basic units-a fully
automatic version Model PM-1 @A and a popular manual
version Model PM-10.M.
The modular design concept of the system camera permits
easy interchangeability of many accessories. When these
modular accessories are attached to the automatic or manual
photomicrographic bodies in accordance with your require-
ments, sharply focused pictures on standard 35 mrn film,
3%" x 4%" Polaroid film or 4" x 5" size film can easily be
obtained. The data imprinting 35 mrn camera back can, be
easily attached on the exposure body. Once in place, the
back enables the user to imprint informarion such as
numhrs, sy mbots, etc., on the film.
The Model PM-IOM and the Attachment Camera Model
PM-6 incorporate a light measuring port to accept the
exposure and color temperature probes of the Exposure
Meter Model EMM-7
