Nikon SMZ1270 Stereo Microscope 6.3X-80X Zoom

The SMZ1270/1270i offers the highest-in-class zoom ratio of 12.7x (0.63 - 8x).

It offers wide viewfield at low magnification, enabling easy confirmation of observation targets, while its cutting-edge optics provide bright and sharp images through the entire viewfield. The SMZ1270i is also equipped with intelligent functions that enable automatic detection of magnification data.

Best-In-Class Zoom Ratio

With a best-in-class zoom ratio of 12.7x (0.63x-8x), the SMZ1270 covers an even greater magnification range than previous models. At the lowest magnification, the actual field of view will go up to 35mm*, allowing easy observation of an entire 35mm petri dish.

* when 1x objective and 10x eyepieces are used


High-level chromatic aberration correction

Apochromat optics have been adopted for the lenses in the SMZ1270/1270i zoom body to achieve high-level chromatic aberration correction. They provide sharp images without blur or color fringe.


Intelligent function for status readout

In combination with the Nikon imaging software NIS-Elements, the SMZ1270i can detect zoom magnification data. In addition, with the Intelligent Nosepiece P-RNI2 attached, data related to the objective in use is also detected. Calibration data is automatically altered, following changes of magnification, to display the appropriate scale and measurement results on the images.


Versatile Double Nosepiece

The double nosepiece offers easy on-axis imaging, enabling observation of the bottom of holes, accurate simple measurement and extended depth-of-focus (EDF) imaging without distortion

Improved Ergonomics

There are several eyepiece tubes to fit various configurations, from a simple setup to a system with some intermediate modules or digital cameras. With an ergonomic eyepiece tube, the observation angle can be adjusted from 0-30 degrees, allowing for comfortable observation postures even if combined with intermediate modules like illuminators or teaching heads.  Furthermore, the Plain Stands and Diascopic LED Stands adapted a slim design for easier operation and exchange of specimens and samples.

Expandable with a Wide Range of Accessories

To support a variety of observation methods and applications used for research and inspection, an assortment of accessories, such as illumination units, stands, and eyepiece tubes, are available. By incorporating a “Fly Eye Lens” with the Epi-Fluorescence illuminator, uniform brightness over the entire field of view is realized, which helps in observing specimen that needs a wide magnification range. 

OCC Illumination

OCC illumination boosts the contrast of transparent sample structures.
