| The creation of favourable conditions for the complex analysis of specimens, combined with high performance imaging capabilities, were high priorities in the design of the VEGA microscope chambers from the beginning. The carefully considered chamber designs, accurate eucentric/compucentric stages, and a number of ports optimized for a wide choice of atachable detectors.
The VEGA microscopes comes with 4 different types of chamber (SB, LS, LM, XM) that predestine the current model:
