High Performance Inverted Research Microscope

The Leica DMi8 takes you beyond configuration restrictions. With the freedom of a completely modular system, you can create the perfect system for your needs. The Leica DMi8 can be upgraded and changed at any time.
With the Leica DMi8, you only buy what you need. If your application would benefit from auto focus or 3D images, you can integrate a motorized focus drive into an otherwise manual system. Or if you need to image in multiple colors, start with a motorized filter wheel and manual focus. With hundreds of possible combinations, you can create the best customized solution for your work. From simple documentation to advanced imaging – one microscope stand meets all of your research needs. Facilitated by its modular and upgradable design, the Leica DMi8 portfolio goes from manual operation up to fully automated systems capable of advanced imaging. Your sample is at the center of focus. With optimized microscope features, your individual sample will always stay in the spotlight.
