The OLYMPUS BX30/U-RLA is a trinocular upright microscope engineered for simultaneous live observation and image capture in research, education, and clinical settings. The 3-position beam splitter (100% Eyes, 50/50% Eyes/Camera, 100% Camera) enables flexible workflows across brightfield, darkfield, phase contrast, DIC, fluorescence, and polarized light modalities. Built on UIS2 infinity-corrected optics with color correction, it accepts a full range of Olympus objectives including the advanced X Line UPLXAPO series, delivering superior numerical apertures, image flatness, and chromatic correction.
