Product Features
1. Enhanced Infinity System
The enhanced infinity system (EIS) of the HemeraPL consists of super wide field SFWF 10×25 mm eyepieces, high numerical aperture 45mm parfocal objectives. This tube lens reduces the angle of the light rays passing through the optics and as a direct result significantly improves the chromatic aberration corrections and contrast. The objectives with larger diameter enable much higher numerical apertures improving the overall resolving power of the optical system
For all these reasons the HemeraPL offers superior optical performance for the most demanding applications
