Changing the Magnification
Besides changing the magnification with the zooming body, this microscope system enables the magnification to be changed
by switching the objectives when used with the P2-RNI2 Intelligent Nosepiece and equipped with two objectives having
different magnification ratios.

SMZ18: Zoom knobs of the Zooming Body
The figure shows the turning directions of a knob and the corresponding changes in the magnification.
• Turning the knob backward: Magnification increase
• Turning the knob forward: Magnification decrease
SMZ25: Zoom buttons of the remote controller
• Upper button: Magnification increase
• Lower button: Magnification decrease
Pressing and holding the buttons causes the magnification to change continuously.

Useful functions for image zooming
When using the SMZ25 Zooming Body, the magnification step size can be switched by pressing the zoom step switching
button of the remote controller. The magnification can also be switched automatically so that the field of view before
switching is maintained when the objective is switched (ALZ function). For details, see Chapter 8, “1.2 SMZ25 Zooming
Body.”
