SM-8TP Stereomicroscope 7-45x
Details
The SM-8TP stereo microscope provides precise and clear images. A stereo microscope provides an in-depth image, making it possible to solder SMD components for example.
Trinocular and simul-focal
The SM-8TP is trinocular, which means that there is a third port available to connect a camera with the help of the C-mount adapter. The SM-8TP is simul-focal, so the camera can be used simultaneously with the two eyepieces.
7x to 45x magnification
The SM-8TP microscope offers a magnification from 7x to 45x at a maximum working height of 100mm. For use with electronics it is best to use a barlow lens 0.5x. This halves the magnification of the microscope and doubles the working distance (the distance between the lens and the working platform).
Swivel arm
The microscope has a swivel arm that can be positioned freely. The arm is clamped on a table (maximum thickness of the tabletop: 50mm).

Accessories
| LED ring lighting | Without illumination, it can get very dark under a microscope. So don't forget to order lighting. | |
| Barlow lens 0.5x | A barlow lens is mounted at the bottom of the microscope's lens, halves the microscope's magnification and doubles the working distance (the distance between the lens and the working platform). | |
| 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 reduces the incidence of light. (Already included) |
Accessories
The SM-8TP microscope (tripod with arm, focus rack, eyepieces and lens) comes with the following accessories:
- Premium rubber eyepieces
- Rubber eyepiece protectors
- Dust cover
Pros and cons
- Makes SMD soldering easier
- High image quality
- The swivel arm makes the microscope much more sensitive for vibrations
