Product Overview

The Olympus CROSS-SWH 10x eyepiece combines the super widefield FN26.5 optics of the SWH series with a built-in centered crosshair reticle, making it the ideal choice for users who need both maximum field coverage and precise specimen centering or alignment capability in a single eyepiece. The FN26.5 field of view is significantly wider than standard 10x/FN22 eyepieces, reducing stage repositioning during scanning and improving workflow efficiency in pathology, research, and documentation workflows. The centered crosshair allows users to precisely locate and mark a point of interest, center a feature in the field of view, or align the microscope optical axis — tasks critical in photomicrography setup, stage calibration, and coordinate referencing. A reticle shelf accommodates 24mm x 1.5mm reticles for additional measurement or grid applications. The 30mm barrel diameter fits all Olympus BX and IX series observation heads. Supplied as a genuine Olympus OEM eyepiece (part no. 2-U502) in new condition.
