● Confocal disk employed enables to acquire image of confocal effect.
● As while light source such as mercury or xenon is used as a light source instead of
laser, excited light of various wavelengths can be used by combination of excitation
filter and cube.
● In case of non-confocal observation by displacing the disk from light path, an image
of deep focal point without confocal effect can be acquired. In case of confocal
observation by placing the disk in light path, a sharp image of shallow focal point
can be acquired. Changeover of confocal to non-confocal can be done very easily.
