More information.\nAxio Zoom.V16, the apochromatic on-axis zoom microscope by Carl Zeiss, delivers \nboth high resolution and a zoom range of 16x. With its large working distance \nand a single objective, you will be zooming seamlessly from large object ﬁelds \nto the smallest detail. Large tile-images at low to medium magniﬁcation rates \nare a special strength, enabling you to enjoy the speed and ease of auto-mated \nstitching. The objective aperture of Axio Zoom.V16 is big compared to stereomi-\ncroscopes and leads to resolution rates that are clearly better, particularly at low \nto medium magniﬁcation. Imaging is a lot faster: Capture images more efﬁciently \nand speed up your quantitative analyses.\nAnimation\n\n\nPage 3\n3\nAxio Zoom.V16\nHigh Resolution and High \nSpeed: Your Zoom Micro-\nscope for Large Fields.\n› \nIn Brief\n› \nThe Advantages\n› \nThe Applications\n \n› \nThe System\n \n› \nTechnology and Details\n \n› \nService\n3\nAxio Zoom.V16: simpler, more intelligent, more integrated.\nZoom between minute detail \nand large object ﬁelds.\nYour Axio Zoom.V16 combines its 16x zoom with \na high numerical aperture and large working dis-\ntance: even at low and medium magniﬁcations you \nwill achieve resolutions up to twice as high as with \nconventional stereomicroscopes. Don’t waste your \ntime stitching tile-images: now you can image \nentire components with just a few shots. Work up \nto four times faster, achieve results in a more \neffective way and reduce sources of error. \nThe zoom microscope that’s made \nfor your application. \nAxio Zoom.V16 works with a motor-driven iris so \nyou can select the ideal mode for your application \nat the touch of a button. Brightness Mode captures \nyour images with the highest possible intensity \nacross the whole zoom area. Use Eyepiece Mode \nwhen you want to analyze your samples visually \nthrough the Axio Zoom.V16 eyepiece. Zoom from \nlarge object ﬁelds with a maximum depth of ﬁeld  \nin high magniﬁcations, achieving the highest \npossible resolution. In Camera Mode, your Axio \nZoom.V16 automatically matches the resolution to \nthe performance of your camera. Throughout the  \nwhole zoom range, Axio Zoom.V16 chooses the \nbest ratio between resolution and depth of ﬁeld.\nEpiRel produces a relief-like image contrast.\nThe EpiRel slider in the Epi-Illuminator Z of your \nAxio Zoom.V16 produces an impressive effect in \ncoaxial incident light when you slightly incline the \nillumination to produce a relief-like image contrast. \nNow you will discover textures and small ridges, \nparticularly at high magniﬁcation. Objects will take \non more contour than in conventional brightﬁeld.\n\n\nPage 4\n4\nAxio Zoom.V16\nHigh Resolution and High \nSpeed: Your Zoom Micro-\nscope for Large Fields.\n› \nIn Brief\n› \nThe Advantages\n› \nThe Applications\n \n› \nThe System\n \n› \nTechnology and Details\n \n› \nService\n4\nDepth of ﬁeld curve; images are in focus within these \nparameters\nTypical defocus curve of a single zoom channel with \nmechanical zoom curve\nTypical defocus curve of a single zoom channel with \nelectronic zoom curve\nDefocus position in μm\nMagniﬁcation\nYour insight into the technology behind it\neZoom produces images with more precision\nThe zoom body or ‘pancrat’ is the core of stereo \nand zoom microscopes. While zooming, it uses a \nmotor drive to position the lenses of your  \nAxio Zoom.V16 individually, achieving  \nextreme precision.\nNow eZoom images are twice as sharp \nWith Axio Zoom.V16, eZoom replaces the \nmechanical curve with an electronic one.  \nEach zoom body describes its own zoom curve  \nand captures visibly more details.\nThe defocus curve shows it clearly: eZoom follows \nthe base line for image sharpness over the magni-\nﬁcation range with twice the precision of a mecha-\nnical zoom body.\nWhen the micro clapper of the computer controlled glue \nleveling machine brings eZoom’s lens in the zoom body \ninto position...\n...it is glued and cured with UV light.\nThe zoom body adjustment device calculates the zoom \ncontrol curve from around 7,000 reference points.\n\n\nPage 5\nAxio Zoom.V16\nHigh Resolution and High \nSpeed: Your Zoom Micro-\nscope for Large Fields.\n› \nIn Brief\n› \nThe Advantages\n› \nThe Applications\n \n› \nThe System\n \n› \nTechnology and Details\n \n› \nService\n5\nTailored precisely to your applications\nTypical applications, \ntypical samples\nTask\nAxio Zoom.V16 offers\nScanner Component\nFast imaging and measurement of large components with  \nhigh resolution to analyze structure details statistically\nImaging of large components with low and medium magniﬁca-\ntion and high image quality.

Thanks to the high resolution of your Axio Zoom.V16, you will capture them in every detail.  \nThe coaxial incident light minimizes reﬂections. You can document even the faintest traces with great reliability. Use the software module Extended Depth of Focus (EDF) \nto produce an image covering the entire thickness of your specimen – EDF processes sharp images full of details out of several focal
