The Nikon CFI Plan Apo 20x/0.75 is a premium apochromatic dry objective for all Nikon infinity-corrected microscopes, delivering exceptional flatness of field, chromatic correction, and 0.75 NA at 20x magnification — the gold standard for high-resolution widefield fluorescence, brightfield, and multi-channel imaging at the tissue and cell level.

KEY FEATURES

  • 20x / 0.75 NA apochromatic (Plan Apo) — the highest level of chromatic and spherical aberration correction available in a 20x objective
  • Plan (flat field) correction — sharp, flat images edge-to-edge for widefield imaging and tiling workflows
  • Infinity corrected, M25 thread — fits all Nikon CFI infinity-corrected microscopes (Eclipse E, Ti, Ni, Ci, and others)
  • 1.0mm working distance — comfortable clearance for standard coverslipped specimens
  • Genuine Nikon OEM — new condition, made in Japan
  • University purchase orders accepted

Product Overview

The Nikon CFI Plan Apo 20x/0.75 is one of the most widely used research objectives in the Nikon CFI lineup, combining apochromatic optical correction with flat field performance at a magnification that balances field of view and resolving power for tissue-level and cell-level imaging. The apochromatic design corrects chromatic aberration across three wavelengths and spherical aberration across two, producing images with exceptional sharpness, contrast, and color fidelity across the visible spectrum — critical for multi-channel fluorescence microscopy where consistent focus across DAPI, GFP, and far-red channels is essential. The Plan correction ensures the image is flat and sharp from center to edge, making this objective ideal for widefield tiling, stitching, and large-area imaging workflows. At 0.75 NA, this objective delivers excellent light collection and resolving power for a dry 20x objective, enabling high-quality fluorescence imaging without immersion media. The 1.0mm working distance provides comfortable clearance for standard coverslipped specimens. The M25 CFI thread mount fits all Nikon infinity-corrected microscope platforms. Supplied in new condition.
