The Leitz LABOLUX medical and laboratory microscope is a scientifically engi- neered instrument of modern design, built for a lifetime of use. The LABOLUX is a new concept in fatigue-free operation and precision performance.

High power Vonses, have spring-loaded mounts preventing damage to lenses or slides.
The LABOLUIX can be faced awc y from the observer, for increased accessibility to all controls and to the object stage. Interchangeable body tubes permit binocular or monocular observation as well as photorricrography, with simul- taneous observation and photography made possible through a unique trinoc- ular attachment. A wide variety of accessories makes the Leitz LABOLUX the ideal instrument for hospital or office laboratory,
