Nikon ED Plan 1.5X Stereo Microscope Objective

  • 🔬 1.5X magnification — increases zoom range for finer detail at the top end of the stereo zoom
  • 🌟 ED (Extra-low Dispersion) optics — minimizes chromatic aberration for crisp, color-accurate imaging
  • 🔗 Compatible with: Nikon SMZU, SMZ800, SMZ1000, and SMZ1500 stereozoom microscopes
  • Condition: Excellent — flawless optics

🔧 Product Description

The Nikon ED Plan 1.5X objective (MNH44150) is an auxiliary objective designed to extend the upper magnification range of Nikon's SMZ stereozoom microscope series. By threading onto the front of the objective turret, it multiplies the zoom body's native magnification by 1.5X — giving you greater resolving power for fine surface detail, small components, or intricate biological specimens without sacrificing the ergonomic benefits of a stereo microscope.

The ED (Extra-low Dispersion) glass construction is the key differentiator here. Standard auxiliary objectives often introduce color fringing at higher magnifications; the ED Plan design suppresses chromatic aberration across the visible spectrum, delivering flat, sharp, and color-true images even at the top of the zoom range. This unit is in excellent condition with flawless optics — no haze, scratches, or coating damage.


🔎 Typical Applications

  • Electronics and PCB inspection requiring higher magnification detail
  • Entomology and small specimen examination
  • Gemology and fine materials analysis
  • Microsurgery and precision assembly work
  • Extending zoom range on Nikon SMZ800, SMZ1000, and SMZ1500 systems
