Re: Do you think that this is a fair comparation between this two microscope (Bx46 and Axio Lab A1)?

Pretty sure the Olympus (BX46) pays a bit more attention to (at least Olympus' notion of) ergonomics. Squeezes the condenser/phase/polarization area under the stage to give a very low profile over a bench and has a costly head that will put the eyepieces most anywhere a 5% or 95% adult might want t...

Hi I´m thinking on buying a microscope. I used a guide for choosing the model, the device is gonna be used in a laboratory so I choose models in the advanced list in the attached guide.
