Product Overview

The Zeiss Epiplan-Neofluar 2.5X is a specialized low-magnification objective engineered specifically for reflected light (epi-illumination) microscopy applications. As part of Zeiss's renowned Epiplan-Neofluar series, this objective combines advanced Neofluar optical design with epi-illumination optimization, delivering superior chromatic correction, high contrast, and excellent flatness of field for industrial inspection, materials science, and metallurgical applications. The Neofluar optical formula provides enhanced color correction compared to standard achromat objectives, ensuring accurate color reproduction and improved image quality when examining metal surfaces, semiconductors, and other reflective specimens. With a low 2.5X magnification, this objective provides an exceptionally wide field of view, making it ideal for specimen overview, large area inspection, defect screening, and initial examination before switching to higher magnifications. The generous 8.6mm working distance provides ample clearance for thick specimens, wafers, and samples requiring manipulation or measurement. The infinity-corrected optical design ensures compatibility with modern Zeiss microscope systems and allows for the insertion of optical accessories such as polarizers, DIC prisms, and beam splitters without compromising image quality. This objective is in excellent condition with flawless optics, offering professional-grade performance for laboratories and quality control facilities using Zeiss Axio, Axiophot, and other infinity-corrected reflected light microscopes.
