Model 5 Microscope

Compare w/Model 10 | Compare w/Model 20

The Model 5 is a high quality, low cost microscope. The Model 5 uses a substage mirror as the illumination source. With bright artificial or natural light, the Model 5 will provide very adequate illumination. However, if light conditions are poor, it is necessary to incline the Model 5 microscope on its inclination joint for the mirror to catch sufficient light. This positions the inclined eyepiece at a less convenient angle and positions the stage at an angle. In a poorly lit envirnoment, or if you just do not want to deal with a mirror, we suggest the Model 7 with cool LED illumination.

Model 5 features include precision optical system, achromatic, optical glass lenses, and rugged metal components engineered for years of reliable performance.

We sell the Model 5 microscope for couples who simply cannot afford a nicer microscope. If you can afford to upgrade you will be much happier with a Model 10 or Model 20. The Model 5 will do the job. You can see and count sperm with the Model 5 but the more expensive microscopes are mechanically and optically better and are much easier to use.
