Description

SWIFT microscopes for ninety-five years, has been a trusted global producer of quality microscopes and microscope accessories. During that time, we've partnered with K-12 teachers and university educators across the United States to provide them with innovative solutions to meet the increasingly complex STEM teaching needs of the 21st century. The Swift SW380T includes all the features of our sleek SW380B model, now upgraded for camera-compatibility! The SW380T trinocular compound microscope features a dedicated camera port that, in conjunction with the model's ultra-precise focusing system, makes it a perfect instrument for clinical instruction, large science lectures, textbook compilation, or the serious hobbyist who wishes to take and share pictures of specimens. Features interchangeable wide-field 10X and 25X eyepieces mounted into a swiveling Siedentopf head (lockable in any position), allowing for quick adjustments to suit different interpupillary distances without loss of focus. The four achromatic DIN objectives -- 4X, 10X, 40X(Spring), and 100X (Spring, Oil) -- combine with the eyepieces for 6 powerful magnification levels between 40X and 2500X. LED bulb provides steady, brilliant illumination fully controlled by the dimmer wheel and focused through an industry-standard NA 1.25 Abbe condenser. A large mechanical stage with moveable slide holder allows you to see the entire area of a specimen without reclipping. Users can attach an additional eyepiece or microscope camera (not included) onto the SW380T's third ocular tube. Combine the camera compatibility with the microscope's powerful ultra-precise focusing system to stream or capture beautifully sharp specimen images at each magnification. Live-stream video for large lectures or clinical demonstrations; the possibilities are nearly endless with the SW380T!

    • The best microscope an independent researcher can get...
Style: SW380T
This Swift SW380T microscope is just about everything I could have wanted in a scope for my research on marine cyanobacteria. For anyone who has been stuck using a single tube standard student-model scope (like my 1927 model Leitz), this is one fabulous upgrade! No more bending down sideways to position the slide, no more eyestrain, no more hours of standing over the scope causing neck and back strain, no more switching between the eyepiece and the c-mount scope camera! No more adjusting the mirror while positioning an external illuminator. The 30-degree viewing angle is perfect, no strain on the neck and back muscles. I can even lower my desk chair a bit. The ease of adjusting the interpupilary distance and the left eyepiece to match the image sharpness of the right eyepiece...these features, while common to stereo microscopes are luxurious. With both the modular trinocular head and the mechanical stage facing me, the stage controls as well as the course and fine adjustment are on the right-hand side of the scope, only the illuminator adjustment knob is on the left, which, being right-handed, makes it easy to work with this unit. The microscope came with a pair of 10X WF (wide field) eyepieces, and a pair of 25X WF eyepieces, and in the turret, 4X, 10X, 40X, and 100X eyepieces, giving a total range of magnification between 40X and 2500X. Now, occasionally, I need either lower or higher magnifications, and fortunately, I already have a pair of 15X Swift WF eyepieces, scavenged from old, damaged microscopes. And I bought a 5X eyepiece and a 0.5X C-mount lens from Amazon...so I just need to order another 5X eyepiece. I also have a 20X eyepiece, again from Amazon, so I repeat that order, as well...which I think I'll do, tonight. Now, I don't often use a 4X objective for most specimens, because my study critters are extremely tiny, so, I put the 10X objective where the 4X was, and took the 20X Plan Achromatic objective from my Leitz scope, and put it where the 10X had been, so the objective series is now 10X, 20X, 40X, 100X. Of course, if I could get a 5 or 6 lens turret, I could... The built-in illuminator is an adjustable LED (light-emitting diode), and should be sufficient for most of my work, although at its brightest, and with the diaphragm wide open, it's a bit dim at higher magnifications. I wonder if I can get a halogen illuminator for work at higher mags??? Anyway, I've tested these eyepieces and objectives against a stage micrometer (also from Amazon), and the system produces beautifully wide fields, sharp over about 85 to 90% of the field, which to my mind, qualifies the objectives as plano lenses. Oh...the C-mount BTER camera (also from Amazon), works perfectly with this microscope on the adjustable vertical tube...so as to be par-focal, in focus at the same time as the eyepieces, the ultimate grace and purpose of having a Trinocular head. Overall, for an independent researcher, someone without university or industry support, the SW380T is a dream come true! ... show more

    • Really really nice microscope
Style: SW380T
Bought this microscope for my home schooling 8 year old granddaughter. I spent much of my career sitting in front of a microscope so I know a good microscope from a cheap one. This one is really nice. It has no design flaws that I have been able to notice. The resolution of the optics is quite good...much better than I was expecting. We have not yet used the 100x oil objective so I cannot comment on that one, but the other three are excellent quality optics and both the 10x and 25x objectives are good. The stage moves smoothly and the light is strong enough to get good visualization. The trinocular allows for a camera but also allows her and I to view the slides together and discuss them. My granddaughter loves it and is learning the joys of seeing the hidden details of her world. We wanted to get her a microscope that would last her through her college years and I believe we have accomplished that with this particular instrument. I would highly recommend it! Only downside (which is ridiculously minor) was the thin little plastic cover is totally inadequate, way to small to accomplish its purpose. We ended up buying a KitchenAid mixer cover for less than $20 which fits it nicely and provides good protection to keep it clean and dust free. ... show more

    • Everyday Research microscope

It came with everything mentioned. I will be receiving pétri dishes later today to try the focus. I will update the reviews tonight. update.. looked at a flower petal at 10x 10x (100x) so far successful, getting to try 400x and 1000x tomorrow For samples thicker than a leaf or hair, it won't light over 100x; it's backlit. However I got front lighting to work at 100x with a handheld light. It won't front light from external light over 100x magnification because the objective lenses have a thick safety encasing that blocks the light source. Everything magnified over 100x has to be thinner than a strawberry leaf to view with back lighting. That's why I'm giving this very well made microscope only 3 stars! Very much needs front lighting for a more easy close up on everyday samples. Maybe a lot to ask, but Yeah!, front lighting for close ups on ordinary samples on a better microscope. I got up to 400x with back lighting but I have yet to learn the oil immersion 100x objective lense ... show more

I am pleasantly surprised for the wholesomeness and great quality of this microscope. Images are sharp and clean. I am happy I got it. It is fun and unpretentious, unlike my lab microscopes. I paired it wit a Gosky iPhone adapter, the one with the protruding tube to be inserted in the tube of the eyepiece or in the trinocular head. Helpful hint: First than anything else... Center the iPhone and Gosky adapter already pre-coupled with the light field of the image while it sits on the eyepiece position, for most control and perfect coupling. A little fiddling will show a sharp capture a circular image, uniformly lighted, without vignettes. THEN, you may photograph from the eyepiece (as if you still owned a binocular microscope) or, BETTER, now troubleless and already centered, on the trinocular tube. Best of both worlds: your eyes and your camera will be both satisfied, registering images at the same time, without the need to sacrifice observation to please your camera. Your diagnosis should be as good as if you were using a $5K microscope in a hospital or a university. Pictures included, taken on my inaugural session, are: Nail with fungi under the nail plate (medium power) and old plantar wart (high power). Questions? @aldogs ... show more

    • Amazing microscope, totally worth the price
Style: SW380T
I just got this microscope yesterday, and it far exceeded my expectations. The controls are easy to learn, the fine focus makes a huge difference in getting perfect shots, etc. It's very sturdy, made with high quality materials, the LED is extremely bright so you can see practically every specimen you want to, and it's the perfect size for a microscope. Overall 10/10 microscope, completely worth the money. ... show more
