Olympus LCPLANFL 60x Long Working Distance Phase Contrast Objective

The Olympus LCPLANFL 60X long working distance phase contrast objective is specifically engineered for high-resolution phase contrast microscopy with extended working distance. The LCPLANFL (Long Chromatic Aberration Corrected Plan Fluorite) optical design provides good chromatic correction with plan (flat-field) correction, delivering quality image flatness across the field of view. Phase contrast microscopy enhances contrast in transparent, unstained specimens by converting phase shifts in light passing through the specimen into amplitude changes, making cellular structures visible without staining. At 0.70 numerical aperture with 1.10-1.89mm working distance, this objective provides excellent resolution while maintaining extended clearance for thick specimens, culture vessels, and micromanipulation. The long working distance is particularly valuable for applications requiring access to specimens or when working with specialized culture vessels. The RMS thread ensures compatibility with Olympus BX, CKX, and IX series infinity corrected microscope systems. New/Open box condition ensures optimal optical performance and reliable operation for demanding research and laboratory applications.
