Abstract

See full text

An optical imaging device for a microscope includes an objective and an optical system configured to interact with the objective for optically imaging an object selectively in a first operating mode and a second operating mode. The optical system includes a first optical subsystem associated with the first operating mode, and a second optical subsystem associated with the second operating mode. The first optical subsystem is configured to form a first image of the object with a first magnification. The second optical subsystem is configured to form a second image of the object with a second magnification that is less than the first magnification. The second optical subsystem includes an optical module insertable into the optical path for selecting the second operating mode. The optical module includes a lens element with a positive refractive power.
