Equipped with the essential 40x High-Power Objective, this microscope provides a total magnification of 400x when used with the standard 10x eyepiece. This allows for the clear observation of cellular structures, such as plant cells, protozoa, and microscopic organisms.
The microscope was produced after 2010 and original retail price was between $340-370.
Key Features:
Total Magnification: Includes 4x, 10x, and 40x objectives for up to 400x viewing power.
Professional Focus: Coaxial coarse and fine focusing knobs for the steady, high-detail adjustments required at 400x.
Industrial Build: Heavy-duty all-metal construction with an integrated 20W lamp for consistent, bright-field illumination.
Optical Quality: 160mm tube length with achromatic lenses to ensure crisp, color-correct images.

The markings "40/0.65" and "160/0.17" on that specific silver cylinder tell us exactly what it is:40/: This is the magnification power ($40x$).0.65: This is the numerical aperture (how much light/detail the lens can "see").160: This is the tube length in millimeters, which is standard for these Omano models.
