Abstract
Provision is made for a method of monitoring an immersion fluid in a microscope having a lens which images a sample located on a sample carrier. In a step a), a camera is positioned which has an image field which is oriented in such a way that it captures the sample carrier and a space between the sample carrier and the lens and adjoining the sample carrier towards the lens, which space is used to receive the immersion fluid. In a step b), the immersion fluid is applied into the space between the sample carrier and the lens. In step c), an image with the immersion fluid being in the space between the sample carrier and the lens is recorded, and in a step d), the position, the area and/or the contour of the immersion fluid on the sample carrier from the image recorded in step d) are/is determined.
