00:00:13,525 --> 00:00:15,265
Hello, my name is Christy Cauble

2
00:00:15,266 --> 00:00:17,893
from the Industrial Microscope
Division of Olympus.

3
00:00:17,895 --> 00:00:19,933
In this video I would like
to introduce you

4
00:00:19,935 --> 00:00:23,798
to the “Best Image” function of
the DSX Series Digital Microscopes.

5
00:00:23,800 --> 00:00:26,748
Best Image allows users
to evaluate combinations

6
00:00:26,750 --> 00:00:29,116
of all the available
observation methods

7
00:00:29,118 --> 00:00:32,875
on a live image before acquiring it.

8
00:00:32,876 --> 00:00:35,763
The Olympus DSX Series
of Digital Microscopes

9
00:00:35,765 --> 00:00:37,716
have the same lighting
options as traditional

10
00:00:37,718 --> 00:00:41,305
high-end compound and
inverted microscopes,

11
00:00:41,306 --> 00:00:44,138
including Brightfield, Darkfield,

12
00:00:44,140 --> 00:00:46,230
Differential Interference Contrast,

13
00:00:46,231 --> 00:00:48,303
and Polarized Light.

14
00:00:48,305 --> 00:00:51,173
The DSX510 and 510i

15
00:00:51,175 --> 00:00:52,945
also have “MIX” lighting

16
00:00:52,946 --> 00:00:55,878
which is a combination
of Brightfield & Darkfield.

17
00:00:55,880 --> 00:00:57,756
Darkfield has a quadrant ring light

18
00:00:57,758 --> 00:01:00,513
with segments that can be
turned on independently,

19
00:01:00,515 --> 00:01:03,348
creating a variety of
illumination effects.

20
00:01:03,350 --> 00:01:05,245
On a traditional microscope,

21
00:01:05,246 --> 00:01:08,241
there are many lighting
options to choose from.

22
00:01:08,243 --> 00:01:10,086
Evaluating each of them individually

23
00:01:10,088 --> 00:01:11,936
can be time consuming.

24
00:01:11,938 --> 00:01:14,630
Traditional scopes also
require an experienced user

25
00:01:14,631 --> 00:01:16,408
to mechanically adjust the hardware

26
00:01:16,410 --> 00:01:18,898
to get the desired image.

27
00:01:18,900 --> 00:01:20,568
With the “Best Image” function,

28
00:01:20,570 --> 00:01:22,458
the hardware and
software is integrated

29
00:01:22,460 --> 00:01:24,978
so that any level of user can evaluate

30
00:01:24,980 --> 00:01:27,515
and compare all
the options side-by-side

31
00:01:27,516 --> 00:01:30,821
without having to make
any hardware adjustments.

32
00:01:30,823 --> 00:01:32,665
In addition to lighting options,

33
00:01:32,666 --> 00:01:35,266
“Best Image” also
allows the user to see

34
00:01:35,268 --> 00:01:39,953
how advanced digital processing
such as HDR and WiDER

35
00:01:39,955 --> 00:01:43,111
enhances an image
prior to acquisition.

36
00:01:43,113 --> 00:01:45,178
Factory Presets are available

37
00:01:45,180 --> 00:01:47,228
but “Best Image” also allows users

38
00:01:47,230 --> 00:01:50,288
to easily create and
save their own presets.

39
00:01:50,290 --> 00:01:53,186
Once the user has determined
the best observation method

40
00:01:53,188 --> 00:01:55,661
they simply hit “apply.”

41
00:01:55,663 --> 00:01:58,335
As you can see,
the observation method

42
00:01:58,336 --> 00:02:00,546
was instantly applied
to the live image

43
00:02:00,548 --> 00:02:03,088
and no hardware
adjustments were necessary.

44
00:02:03,090 --> 00:02:06,808
Once you are satisfied
you can acquire the image.

45
00:02:06,810 --> 00:02:08,965
In addition to saving presets,

46
00:02:08,966 --> 00:02:10,773
all previewed images can be saved

47
00:02:10,775 --> 00:02:13,576
and reproduced for future reference.

48
00:02:13,578 --> 00:02:15,555
"Best Image" is a quick and easy way

49
00:02:15,556 --> 00:02:18,083
of evaluating lighting
and advanced processing

50
00:02:18,085 --> 00:02:19,368
on a live image.

51
00:02:19,370 --> 00:02:23,131
