Fine Objective Lens for Specific needs: a wide, flat field of view. Not for greater depth of field.
An excellent lens for its purpose, which is to focus on tiny things in nearly a single plane. Great for larger bacteria, or with a higher power eyepiece (15X, 20X, 25X...), for typical-sized bacteria, blood-cell counts, etc. A "Plan" or "Planar" lens also provides the widest field of view, but does not have great depth of focus for larger objects, so this is a specialized lens for a specific purpose. One problem, though...when it arrived, the outer lens casing was loose, not properly tightly screwed on, and this was the case with some of the other objective lenses I've purchased...

Significant Improvement in Overall Image Quality
This Amscope 40X Plan objective lens significantly improves the overall image quality. It is much sharper, has higher resolution, contrast, and produces a significantly brighter image than the stock (non planar) lens. Equally importantly, the image is much sharper around the perimeter. Somewhat expensive, but definitely worth the cost. Highly recommended. Just be careful when installing and when focusing, as the tip of the lens needs to come precariously close to the cover slip in order to focus. If your microscope has a stage stop mechanism, we would recommend adjusting it as a precaution to prevent accidental contact with the slide.

Very good quality.
Correcting a review. I am impressed with this objective compared to my non-PLAN objective. A worthwhile upgrade.

Little flaw
The casing for the objective was loose when I received it. Hopefully did not affect the optic.

Significant improvement over stock 40x objective
Well-worth the money as an upgrade to the stock lens. ....Great value. Recommend for any bright field scope "high- dry" viewing.

Great
Works great without the edge effects you would get in non-plan objectives.

I am thrilled to have found a replacement objective that works with my old Leitz Wetzlar SM-LUX binocular microscope. And I was also happy with the prompt help I received in tracking down my wayward package. Two thumbs up.
