Levenhuk M2500 PLUS Microscope Digital Camera (86165)

The Levenhuk M2500 PLUS digital camera is designed for capturing high-resolution images with microscopes using low-magnification objectives of 4x and 10x. Even at low magnification, its 25MP sensor delivers exceptional detail, producing full-color images with a maximum resolution of 4928x4928 pixels. This camera is particularly well-suited for brightfield research.

One of its main advantages is the USB 3.0 interface, which transfers data up to ten times faster than USB 2.0. This makes the camera ideal for live streaming, presentations, and recording fast-moving objects. The frame rate varies with resolution and can reach up to 100 frames per second.

The camera includes software for adjusting settings and processing captured images. The software works with Windows, macOS, and Linux. If you need help with installation, you can contact technical support—just have your operating system and version information ready (for Linux: platform and kernel version).

The camera attaches to a microscope using a C-mount adapter, and the included adapters allow it to fit eyepiece tubes of different diameters.
