A unique reflected light microscope called the Bresser Science MTL 201 enables observation of opaque objects at higher magnifications (50x-800x). Working in metallography (for example, microscopy of polished samples of metals or alloys), mineralogy, precision engineering, and electronics is perfect for this well-designed device. It is appropriate for scientific investigation, classroom demonstration, and commercial manufacturing (e.g. quality controlling). The MTL 201 has a big stage (250 mm x 230 mm), which can be manipulated coarsely by a rapid adjustment lever and delicately by a transverse and a longitudinal knob, in accordance with its intended uses. Coaxial; about 70 m/full turn) coarse and fine drives are available for the focuser. A dimmer-equipped 20 W halogen lamp provides the lighting. The sample is illuminated by light that passes through the objective from above. A field diaphragm that may be centered, a few filters (ground glass, yellow, green, and blue), and a polarizer/analyzer combo are included. Planachromatic DIN goals are included with the fivefold nosepiece (5x, 10x, 20x, 40x, 80x). Two 30° slanted ocular tubes as well as the picture tube are supported by the trinocular head. The oculars (which have 10x wide field lenses) can be adjusted for diopter and eye comfort. Digital imaging is possible with the picture tube, for instance when using the optional PC eyepiece. Additional potential extras include a planachromatic objective, dividing eyepiece (WF10x), and eyepiece (WF16x) (50x).
