Introducing Nikon's latest evolution in clinical microscopy.
The all-new Eclipse Ci Series features new ergonomics that make the microscope more comfortable than ever before, optical enhancements to speed up diagnosis time and digital imaging capabilities that go way beyond any microscopes in their class. And, for the first time ever, there’s a powerful motorized model that might possibly be the most advanced clinical microscope ever created.
Key Features
Ultra-Bright LED Illumination
The Eclipse Ci-E and Ci-L models feature a power-saving, long-life, high-intensity LED illumination system that is three times brighter than previous Nikon systems.
Image Capture Button
In response to user demand for the easy image capture, the ECLIPSE Ci series has a built-in dedicated capture button on the microscope base. An optional digital imaging system supports simple camera settings and operation including capturing, measuring and image sharing.
All-new Camera Control Unit
The new Digital Sight DS-L3* is a stand-alone controller with a large-size touch panel, which allows simple setting and operation of a Digital Sight camera without a computer. The camera control is possible with mouse operation or touch panel operation by finger touch or stylus pen. Configurations of the PC-use control unit DS-U3 and the imaging software NIS-Elements are also available.
Enhanced Ergonomic Features
Versatile Observation Techniques
The high-intensity LED illumination and wide range of accessories enable phase contrast, darkfield and simple polarizing microscopy.
Advanced Collaboration and Image Sharing Fucntions
When mounting a Digital Sight series digital camera and the camera control unit DS-L3 to the ECLIPSE Ci, image sharing, consultation, and distance learning between multiple PCs is easy. This combination allows live streaming of images on the network through firmware so the capability of the network is not compromised by software. The split-screen capability for real-time comparison of low to high magnification images is an added convenience for remote consultation. In essence, this unique network addressable system is the most powerful tool for consulting in or between hospitals, presentations and conferences during academic meetings, inclass lectures and distance education.
Motorized Operation (Ci-E)The Eclipse Ci-E is Nikon's first motorized microscope designed specifically for the clinical laboratory.
Automated features include:
Ceramic Stage
The stage is coated with an abrasion and chemical resistant ceramic coating, allowing long-term frequent specimen changes without damaging the stage surface.

Enhanced Ergonomic Features
Ergonomic Binocular Tube
Eyepiece angle and extension are adjustable to ensure a comfortable observation position. A camera can be mounted via the DSC port.
- Eyelevel Riser
Eyepoint height can be adjusted to suit your natural posture and increases flexibility for users of different heights.
- Lower Stage Positioning
A nosepiece spacer lowers the stage facilitating specimen exchange.
- Stage Handle with Height Adjustment
Stage movement has never been this smooth and comfortable.

Motorized Operation (Ci-E)The Eclipse Ci-E is Nikon's first motorized microscope designed specifically for the clinical laboratory.
Automated features include:
- Control Pad
By programming specific buttons to correspond to specific objective lenses, magnification can be easily changed with a one-touch button.
- Auto Light Intensity Reproduction
The user-defined light intensity for each objective lens is automatically memorized and replicated when the objective is used again. This eliminates the need for manual re-adjustment of light intensity.
- Nosepiece Rotation Buttons
The nosepiece rotation buttons allows two magnifications to be stored-- with one press of a button the user can easily alternate between two objective lenses. This is useful when frequent change of magnifications is necessary, for example between 10x and 40x objectives.
- Motorized Swing-Out Condensor
Automatically swing-out and swing-in the top-lens element according to the objective lens that is selected.
- Motorized Nosepiece
Ceramic Stage
The stage is coated with an abrasion and chemical resistant ceramic coating, allowing long-term frequent specimen changes without damaging the stage surface.
