{{ :widefield_lightpath.png?0x300}}The Zeiss Cell Observer is a fully motorized inverted //widefield fluorescence microscope// ideal for live-cell imaging with fast acquisition speeds. It is equipped with a large cage incubator and a stage top incubator for temperature control and CO2 supply and with Definite Focus for hardware focus control during long time-lapse acquisitions. Using the ZEN software you can control the motorized filters, shutters and stage to simultaneously set up multi-color time-lapse imaging experiments in multiple stage positions. The stage is furthermore equipped with a piezo for fast Z displacement. You can choose between a HXP metal halide lamp or fast-switching LEDs for illumination. Its cooled [[https://asset-downloads.zeiss.com/catalogs/download/mic/a8e5b4d7-25f6-4069-8f03-c6713d044c87/EN_product-info_Axiocam-506_mono.pdf|Axiocam 506m]] camera allows you to capture weak fluorescent signals and minimize photobleaching/photodamage in light sensitive samples. It is also equipped with a high sensitivity [[https://www.photometrics.com/products/prime-family/primebsiexpress|Photometrics Prime BSI Express]] sCMOS camera for high resolution imaging with maximized signal detection. | {{ :widefield_lightpath.png?0x300}}The Zeiss Cell Observer is a fully motorized inverted //widefield fluorescence microscope// ideal for live-cell imaging with fast acquisition speeds.
