h1. Axio Imager ---- {float:right}!Axio-Imager.jpg|border=1!{float} *Location: MRC Building, First Floor, Room 1.19.* The Zeiss Axio Imager upright microscope is ideal for viewing slide-mounted specimens using phase contrast or fluorescence microscopy. It has a QImaging Retiga greyscale camera suitable for low light level imaging of fluorescent specimens. The objective lenses are all designed for high resolution observation of specimens mounted under standard #1.5 coverslips (170 µm). All microscope controls are manual apart from camera image capture. There are curretnlycurrently three image acquisition software packages installed on the computer: Openlab (obsolete - updates no longer available); Volocity and µManager.
