A variety of objective lenses, including oil and water immersion, allow for viewing of slides, open well dishes and flow cells on the upright Olympus system. A motorized stage provides quick scanning of large areas. Spectral overlap is also easily resolved by control of the width of emission in the final filter. The efficient detectors provide fairly quick acquisition times.
