For All Conventional Microscope Users,

This Is an Olympus Proposal for

the Next Generation of Microscopes.

Olympus introduced the world to a new dimension in industrial microscopy with the DSX

Series digital microscope system. Today, with the unique combination of time-tested Olympus

optics and today’s newest digital imaging technology, the Olympus DSX Series sets a new

standard in industrial microscopes.The Olympus DSX Series digital microscopes allow even

ﬁrst-time users to immediately produce superior images and highly reliable results, thanks to

even more advanced features and an even simpler interface. No matter how big the challenge,

DSX delivers the solution.

The DSX510 Provides Observation, Image Capturing,

Measurement, and Sharing — All in One.

Thanks to higher-quality optics and more advanced digital technology, the

DSX510 delivers efﬁcient observation, intuitive magnifying operation, a variety

of observation methods, and reproducibility.

Efﬁcient Observation

Various image capturing methods provide easy, intuitive operation — as simple

as using a smartphone or tablet. Options include EFI and 3D imaging, wide

area image capturing, movie capturing, and programmed image capturing.

Easy Image Capturing

Live, 2D, and 3D measurement options are backed by guaranteed accuracy

and repeatability, automatic calibration, and reproducibility self-check.

Measurement can also be automated with a simple wizard function.

Accurate Measurement

A well-designed reporting system allows easy sharing of measurement and

analysis results. Reports can be created with one click, then exported to a

variety of formats.

Easy Sharing

More to See. Easier to Use.

Made possible by the unique combination of Olympus optics and today’s newest digital imaging

technology, the DSX510 digital microscope is the culmination of a long history of superior

engineering, design, and manufacturing. The microscope minimizes glare, delivers accurate

color reproduction, and eliminates ﬂare and distortion. Every sample is reproduced with such

accuracy that it’s simply stunning, and stunningly simple. Take a closer look at the DSX510, and

see what other digital microscopes cannot.

Efﬁcient Observation

Technology that Reveals What Couldn’t Be Seen Before

High NA — Low-Aberration Field Lenses

With lenses that have higher NA and lower aberration than

current digital microscopes, plus improved evenness of light

intensity, the DSX510 series of digital microscopes offer high

resolution equal to the very best light microscopes. DSX510

lenses deliver the longest working distance in the class, and

enables observance of highly uneven samples as well.

*Comparison of lens performance at similar magniﬁcation

LED Illumination: Picture-Perfect

Inspection, Reduced Energy

With the advanced LED illumination of DSX510, color does not

change with the LED’s intensity, minimizing the need for white

balancing, which is required with conventional light sources. This

not only ensures accurate observation, but also helps reduce

operating costs. Long LED working life makes the instruments

virtually maintenance-free.

Olympus’s high-performance CCD is the engine that shows

exactly what our high-quality optics reveal. Our image shift

function ensures high ﬁdelity with ﬁne detail processing, so clarity

extends from corner to corner. Features include a Full HD camera

and HDR digital processing.

Optical Zoom: Get Closer to the Sample

Change the magniﬁcation to ﬁt requirements — the DSX510 offers

optical zoom of up to 13X and digital zoom of up to 30X.

A single optical lens can cover the typical magniﬁcation range of

conventional light microscopes.

Nosepiece

Two lenses can be mounted at once for an even greater

magniﬁcation range (70X to 9000X maximum range). When

switching lenses, the DSX510 automatically adjusts magniﬁcation

so the viewing area size remains the same.

Macro Map: Always Know the Location

As zoom magniﬁcation is adjusted to a higher level, the area seen

at one time is reduced — Macro map automatically records a full

ﬁeld-of-view image in a separate macro window. On this full ﬁeld

image, location on the sample is noted and updated while moving

along the sample. If using the panorama function, it will also be

displayed in a macro window to provide the same convenience

on an even larger area.

A Variety of Observation Methods, Freely Usable

Quickly and Easily Acquire the Images Required for Observation

Ideal for any industrial microscopic observation method, the DSX510 offers a variety of observation modes that deliver the high-

resolution images users expect from high-end optics.

With virtually every industrial observation method just a click

away, the DSX510 makes it easy to choose the right one for the

task at hand. No complicated adjustments needed — simply

choose between modes (brightﬁeld, darkﬁeld, MIX [BF + DF],

Differential Interference Contrast, polarized light) and start

creating high-end images that meet precise demands.

ideal for inspecting uneven

surfaces or nanometer-level

imperfections.

Polarized light observation —

a valuable technique for

eliminating glare on substrates.

observation method.

MIX (BF + DF)

Use BF and DF at the same

time, combining the best of BF

ease of observation with the

specific emphasis of DF defect

observation.

Advanced Image Processing

HDR: High-Deﬁnition Visuals Beyond

the Human Eye

Sample appearance can vary depending on quality of material,

surface conditions, or illumination methods. One of a variety of

observation methods made possible by the advanced digital

technology of DSX510, the HDR (High Dynamic Range) function,

combines several images taken at different exposures to

accurately correct brightness differences on the sample surface,

delivering a more consistently accurate sample rendition. HDR

provides high-ﬁdelity images that show not only textures but also

ﬂaws and defects that were previously undetectable. Glare can

also be reduced for more comfortable observation.

WiDER: Easy Inspection of Samples

with High Reﬂectance Difference

If a non-reﬂective image area cannot be seen, merely increasing

illumination power is often not enough, as glare can occur. The

DSX510 eliminates this issue with WiDER, a proprietary image

processing system that takes care of high-contrast problems

with one click. No blackouts. No glare.

A click removes problems caused by different contrast by materials

Color Enhancement: See Only What’s

Required

The color enhancement feature of DSX510 allows color to be

placed where it is needed while leaving the rest of the image in

black-and-white, making it much easier to locate defects. Ideal

for focusing on one particular defect.

Inspection is easier when you can highlight possible defects or contamination for

inspection

Option

Fast HDR Mode

With a higher refresh rate than normal HDR, fast HDR provides

smooth imaging even when moving the stage or focusing the

sample.

Fine HDR Mode

Fine HDR delivers better image quality with less noise. This is

achieved by gathering more data than standard HDR.

Anyone Can Make Observations in Optimum Conditions

Best Image Function Ensures Optimal Performance from Any Operator

Operate the system by simply choosing the image that works best — the DSX510 will set all the necessary parameters to achieve that

image. The Best image function ensures optimal images, whether looking for defects, uneven surfaces, or foreign objects. With Best

image, anyone can operate the system — beginner to expert — and it can be customized for each operator.

Best image

The mechanisms of DSX510 fully digitalized so that every image taken or saved has the conditions it was taken under recorded with

the image. If an image is captured with the DSX510, the operator can retrieve the conditions of capture from the image data with one

click, enabling additional observations under the same conditions and settings.

Low Center of Gravity, Sturdy Frame

A low center of gravity, sturdy frame, and low underslung body provide the DSX510 with high stability at high magniﬁcation. An anti-

vibration function signiﬁcantly reduces any vibration that might affect inspection or measurement.

Offering Optimal Environments for Observation

Software Supports the Vibration Compensation Function

DSX has a sturdy, high-rigidity frame with a low center of gravity, which absorbs the impact of vibrations. Moreover, the software is also

equipped with the anti-vibration function, making it possible to conduct stable observations even at high magniﬁcations of over 9000X.
