To ensure you get the highest image quality, each dedicated lens combines the finest optical quality glass and special coatings to give a high resolution, high contrast view. For the most demanding subjects there are a range of Super Long Working Distance (SLWD) objective lenses.

Mantis has few, simple to operate controls to ensure that every user quickly and effectively becomes confident with the instrument. Rotating the multi-view turret allows three different magnifications of your subject with a simple operation without changing view.

To switch between turret positions, gently rotate the turret clockwise or anti-clockwise to the desired position. There is a determined position where each lens lines up properly and will lock into position.

All of the objectives are designed to be parfocal. When rotating the turret, the objective will remain in focus (excluding SLWD objectives).

When fitting the Super Long Working Distance (SLWD) lenses, they can only be fitted in the front turret position & the turret will not be able to rotate when they are in place.

When in use the Super Long Working Distance Lenses require illumination deflectors to be fitted below the lighting. These deflectors focus the light in the correct place for optimum performance with the SLWD lenses.
