A Visit to Kurt Olbrich
Examples > Video
This video shows you a candid look behind the scenes of the range of Ergonom microscopes developed since 1976, predecessors to the range of Ergonom microscopes available at the time of filming, as presented by the inventor, Kurt Olbrich. 40:13 min.

Note: The Ergonom 500 microscope shown here, has now been replaced by the SeeNano series which has comparable capabilities and more advanced electronics. All images are made in real time and natural colors without staining or oil immersion. Due to the extended working distance, the objective does not actually touch the slide at any time (max. NA 0.95).
Most images, with resolution of 200nm or greater, could have also been made with the SeeNano Lab series of microscopes. Like the SeeNano Pro, the Lab series also features enhanced DOF and full color contrast without the need for staining or oil immersion.
