Welcome to Dual View Microscope website and internet store where you can find our selection of microscopes with dual viewing capabilities.  This type of microscope is also called a teaching microscope since it is often used by teachers and students for dual simultaneous viewing of specimens.  The teacher can view the specimen and give instructions to the student who is examining the specimen at the same time.  These teaching and training dual view microscopes are a great addition to any science or biology classroom.  Contact us today about how we can meet your microscopy needs.

The use of dual view microscopes in any field of interest most especially on the study of science is one of the most vital and valuable tool in today’s research industry as well as in medical science, from the major discoveries in biology, medicine, anthropology, forensic science, metallurgy, and materials research are based on advances in microscopy. Dual view microscopes nowadays are equipped with features and attachments that could reduce strain and stress to all microscope users. The invention of boom stand, articulating arms, video microscopes, USB microscopes, digital microscope and dual view microscopes are only the view example of this state of the art equipment that gives a mullion and more reasons why microscope nowadays is the most vital equipment in a laboratory today.

Dual view microscopes can be monocular or binocular microscope with a second, vertical viewing point. This vertical port can be used with an eyepiece for a second person, like an instructor to view the specimen, or one person to view and a micro video camera, to view specimens simultaneously. Dual view microscopes are specifically designed to reduce eyestrain for users who are wearing glasses as each eye tube features independent focusing diopter adjustment to compensate for the natural vision differential between each eye. A dual microscope has two separate eyepiece ports, a one inclined at an angle and the other one would be pointing up. That’s why it is impossible to a microscope user to view the specimens on both eyepieces at the same time since they are very far apart. On the other hand, there are some microscopes that are binocular dual view microscopes are commonly called trinocular microscopes but that doesn’t mean that monocular dual microscopes are not necessarily binocular microscopes.

The microscope base of dual view microscopes was engineered for stability to the body while allowing extra room for hand access for microscope controls such as oversized coarse and fine focus controls. Another thing is, a dual view microscope also provides an easy access to coaxial mechanical stage controls. With dual view microscope, you will surely appreciate the precise mechanical stage movement as well as the optical clarity of the specimen, flat field and the most important thing is comfortable viewing. Other feature that comes with dual view microscope is a lighting system. This is usually a 20 watts halogen bulb that is in need to be connected to a power source. No to mention that dual view microscopes is designed with dual head that is equipped with a ten times wide field eye pieces, other types of dual microscopes can be used with a 100 times objective lens. So if you want to learn more flip on those pages, so we get you informed about dual view microscopes and other microscopy issues.
