The Omano Optima^® OM159 compound microscope is the first in our new range of premium, Omano Optima microscopes. It represents a higher quality of optics that is suitable for research applications while still remaining affordable. As such, it is the highest quality, research-grade, compound microscope in the Omano line.  It sets a new Omano standard for image clarity, versatility, performance and overall value.

This unit features five full planachromatic objectives in a rear-facing quintuple nosepiece configuration, Kohler 20W halogen illumination, and includes "windowpane style" super-widefield 10X eyepieces.  In keeping with the standard of quality and user-friendliness common to the entire brand, the microscope includes high quality, ambidextrous coaxial focusing knobs, a well-designed fully mechanical stage and excellent ergonomics.

It is available in a trinocular configuration with a 23.2mm trinocular tube output for microphotography applications.  Accessories include both blue and frosted filters, immersion oil, spare fuse, spare bulb and dust cover.

The microscope is well-constructed with thoughtful attention to detail. For example, the dimmer control is located immediately under the left-hand focusing knob; as a result, both focus and dimmer controls can be operated simultaneously without the need to look up. The left-hand coaxial focusing knobs are standard hand knobs while the right hand controls enable single, finger tip focusing. The mechanical stage has a convenient cut away section for ease of use while the controls have smooth and satisfying movements that also speak to the quality of construction.
