use.

4. Objective Lenses

Most compound microscopes come with three or four


objective lenses that revolve on the nosepiece. The most
common objective lenses have power of 4X, 10X and 40X.
Combined with the magnification of the eyepiece the
resulting magnification is 40X, 100X and 400X magnification.
Total magnification is calculated by multiplying the power of
the eyepiece by the power of the objective lens. (10X
Eyepiece X 40X Objective = 400X Total Magnification)
Some more advanced microscopes have an additional
objective lens with 100X power. This results in 1,000X
magnification. So where do you start? Which objective lens
do you need for a particular task? See “How to Use a
Compound Microscope” below.
