The ZM-4T stereo zoom microscope provides precise and clear images. A stereo microscope provides an in-depth image, making it possible to solder SMD components for example. Furthermore, the eyepieces of this microscope are focusable and stay focused over the entire zoom range.
The ZM-4T is trinocular, which means that there is a third port available to connect a camera with the help of the C-mount adapter. The ZM-4T is simul-focal, so the camera can be used simultaneously with the two eyepieces.
The ZM-4T stereo microscope offers a magnification from 7x to 45x at a working height of 10-11 cm (without LED-ring). A barlow lens such as the barlow lens 0.5x can be added to increase the effective working height up to 20 cm (lowest zoom) or 17 cm (highest zoom). Worst case, with the barlow lens and 60-LED ring, the working distance will be 15 cm at maximum zoom.
The microscope has a solid base with a sound, dual arm that can be positioned freely. You can install it quickly on top of, for example, a PCB or the phone you want to repair. The dual arm can easily be pulled towards you and pushed away, as opposed to a single arm.
The ZM-4T stereo microscope has a slightly better optical quaility than the SM-4TP. Therefore, the ZM-4T provides images that are sharper, less deformed, and have higher contrast. These improvements are most noticeable when looking through the eyepieces of the microscope and less noticeable when looking at the images provided by the camera.

60 LED-ring | This LED ring is mounted using 3 thumb screws. Although it fits directly to the ZM-4T, it is not very stable, so we recommend mounting it to a barlow lens, or use the LED-ring below instead. | |
ZM-4T LED-ring | This LED-ring can be screwed to the ZM-4T, which is a stable mounting method. However, it does not fit to other microscopes or barlow lenses. | |
C-mount adapter 0.35x | A 0.35x C-mount adapter enables you to connect a camera to the microscope. | |
2K camera | A camera with HDMI output and storage capabilities with 2K resolution. If one would need a camera with a higher resolution, we would recommend the 4K camera. | |
Premium rubber eyepieces | Rubber eyepieces provide more comfort and reduce the incidence of light. |
