Product description

Nikon SMZ1500 stereo microscope with 0.75–11.25 zoom, phototube, 10x eyepieces, and LED ring illumination.

The Nikon SMZ1500 is a high-performance stereo microscope designed for precision optical imaging in biomedical engineering, molecular diagnostics, and bioprocessing research. It features a zoom range of 0.75 to 11.25x, enabling detailed observation across a broad magnification spectrum essential for applications such as synthetic biology and gene editing workflows.

Key specifications include:

  • Binocular head with a pair of 10x/22 focusing eyepieces providing ergonomic, high-resolution viewing suitable for live-cell imaging and fluorescence analysis.
  • Phototube equipped with a 1.0x C-mount camera adapter, facilitating digital image capture critical in documentation and biomanufacturing quality control.
  • Plan Apochromatic 1x objective with 70 mm working distance, offering superior optical correction and ample space for sample manipulation.
  • Coarse and fine focus block ensures precise focusing, enhancing clarity for neuroimaging and cell imaging studies.
  • LED ring illumination evenly lights samples, optimizing contrast and reducing heat exposure during long examinations.
  • Robust stand with white stage plate and dust cover, guaranteeing stability and protection in laboratory environments.

This stereo microscope is widely adopted in biotechnology laboratories for detailed morphological assessments, making it a critical tool in molecular biology research and clinical diagnostics. The inclusion of the phototube camera adapter expands its use into digital imaging pipelines, supporting biopharmaceutical production and synthetic biology projects.

Serviced and packed by an authorized Nikon technician, the SMZ1500 assures reliability and ready integration into research workflows requiring high-fidelity stereoscopic observation.

Why Questpair exists

Lab equipment markets are fragmented. Buyers spend weeks calling distributors, comparing quotes, and verifying supplier reliability. Sellers struggle to reach global research labs.

We built Questpair to fix this. Every supplier on the platform is verified before listing. Every quote you receive comes from a real, vetted seller. AI prepares your case in minutes, then a real specialist takes over.

We're an independent team based in The Netherlands, working with research labs and procurement teams across Europe and worldwide.

Frequently asked questions

How long does laboratory equipment typically last?

With a service contract, ten to fifteen years is normal for most benchtop instruments. Detectors and pumps are the parts that wear first.

Can I get service for older equipment?

Yes. Every verified supplier states which service partners cover the instrument, and we list that alongside the offer.

Where can I buy parts?

Ask a scientist through the request button. Parts are often available even when the instrument itself is discontinued.

What is the typical lead time for refurbished equipment?

Two to six weeks, depending on refurbishment scope and whether calibration is included.

Does laboratory equipment ship internationally?

We ship to 38 countries. Crating and customs handling are quoted with the instrument.
