Image capture in various modes is available through the same steps as in the normal mode, contributing greatly to improved efficiency in laboratory experiments.
The Single mode offers single-phase contrast and multi-color image capturing.
For time-lapse imaging, the FSX100 can be set up to take an image repeatedly at a set time interval. The subsequent images can be analyzed and played back as a movie. This mode is excellent for recording changes to your specimen over time.
In Z-Stack mode, your specimen is optically 'sectioned' by taking an image at different focus points through the image. These 'slices' can then be analyzed. Intercellular details, other internal structures, or specimen shape in three dimensions can be observed with this technique. You can set the spacing at which each slice is captured.
Also referred to Stitching mode allow you to combine images taken in a 3x3 or 5x5 pattern to create large area, high resolution images. Especially useful when your specimen is larger than the field of view, or not properly resolved at lower magnifications.
