1. What is a microscope?
A microscope contains two lens systems: the eyepiece and the objec-
tive. We're presenting these systems as one lens each so that the con-
cept is easier to understand.
The lower lens (objective) produces a magnified image of the object.
The picture, which you can't see, is magnified once more by the second
lens (eyepiece, 1), which you can see as the 'microscope picture'.
2. Assembly and location
Before you start, choose an ideal location for using your microscope. It's
important that you choose a spot with enough light for normal observa-
tion. Furthermore, it is recommended that you place the microscope on
a stable surface, because a shaky surface will not lead to satisfactory
results.
