AxioImager is a Zeiss AxioImager upright microscope ideal for viewing  slide-mounted samples using phase contrast or fluorescence microscopy.  It has a QImaging QIClick camera designed for taking greyscale images of  fluorescent samples with high sensitivity to low light levels. All  microscope controls are manual apart from camera image capture, which is  through Improvision's Openlab software.
