New NIKON 20x Plan Achromat objective
A new 20x Plan Achromat VC objective (air) has arrived and is installed on the NIKON A1R/STORM machine. The multi immersion objective is removed from the turret but will remain available for users (ask CCI staff if you prefer to use it). The new objective is more widely applicable, has a working distance of 1 mm, a NA of 0.75 and should work well with the perfect focus system. We will test it in the coming period.
