Description
System overview
| Imaging platform | Rigid, image-first thin-section system with camera, objective, stage and analyzer paths. |
|---|---|
| Camera | Canon EOS R5 camera body for digital petrographic records. |
| Illumination | Transmitted LED light, petrographic analyzer/polarizer path, and Godox MF12 flash components with lens/objective diffusers. |
| Output workflow | Plain-light and cross-polarized fields can be focus stacked and stitched while preserving optical settings and stage orientation. |
Scientific optics included
- Canon MP-E 65 mm 1–5× macro
- Canon 70–200 mm objective tube-lens path
- Mitutoyo M Plan Apo 2×
- Mitutoyo M Plan Apo 5×
This standard petrographic configuration includes 2× and 5× Mitutoyo objectives; the full 2×–100× set is a separate Micro Kit configuration.
Field of view guide
| Section context | A low-power, stitched record connects each mineral observation to the full prepared thin section. |
|---|---|
| Grain relationships | 2× and 5× objectives document fabrics, boundaries and inclusions under recorded illumination and polarization. |
| Smaller features | The higher 7.5×–100× path belongs to a separate Micro Kit configuration, not this standard package. |
| Reproducible comparison | Record plain or cross-polarized mode, analyzer/stage orientation, objective, light settings and specimen-plane scale. |
Field descriptions guide capture planning. Physical field width and measurement accuracy depend on the camera, optics, working distance and a separately verified specimen-plane calibration. The itemized quote confirms the exact supplied configuration.
