Microscope Delta Optical BioLight 300 40x-400x + DLT-Cam Basic 2 MP camera
Looking for a reliable microscope that can handle your first steps in microscopy as well as more demanding work with prepared slides? The Delta Optical BioLight 300 microscope bundled with the DLT-Cam Basic 2 MP camera is a complete solution for a home laboratory, school or hobby use. A solid metal body, quality glass optics and a thoughtfully assembled set of accessories make it one of the best-equipped microscopes in its price range.
Why choose the BioLight 300?
The BioLight 300 is not just "another cheap microscope". Its glass optics deliver a sharp and high-contrast image at all magnifications from 40x up to 400x. The robust metal body ensures long service life and stability even with everyday use.
Particular attention deserves the presence of both micro- and macrometric focusing knobs - a feature that appears only rarely in this price category but is absolutely indispensable when working at higher magnifications. The cross-stage measuring 90x90 mm allows comfortable and precise positioning of the slide along both axes.
Dual lighting system
The dual lighting system with brightness control is another strong point of this microscope:
- Bottom transmitted light - for classic observation of transparent biological slides: plant and animal tissues, microorganisms, etc.
- Top incident light - for illuminating opaque objects such as insects, minerals, coins, gemstones or electronic components.
The microscope can be powered both from the mains (230 V) and from batteries, so it can easily be used away from a power outlet.
Accessories included in the set
The set includes ready-made prepared slides for immediate use, tools for preparing your own specimens, and optical cleaning supplies. A beginner microscopist will have everything needed from the very first day.
DLT-Cam Basic 2 MP camera
The DLT-Cam Basic 2 MP camera turns the BioLight 300 into a fully featured digital microscopy station. The CMOS image sensor with a resolution of 2 MPx (1920x1080 pixels) and a pixel size of 2.9 µm captures detailed color images as well as video recordings.

Delta Optical DLT-Cam Viewer software
The Delta Optical DLT-Cam Viewer software for Windows is available as a free download. It is a fully featured microscopy tool - not just a simple image viewer.
Basic functions
- Live preview with adjustable resolution
- Image freeze
- Horizontal and vertical image flip
- Full-screen display
- Automatic and manual exposure and white balance control
- Adjustable color parameters: brightness, contrast, saturation, hue and gamma
- Grayscale and negative display modes
Measurement and analysis tools
For more technically demanding users, the software offers length calibration against a reference standard and a full set of geometric measurement tools:
- Angle, point, line, parallel lines, perpendicular
- Rectangle, ellipse, circle, arc and polygon
- Area and perimeter calculation - both on captured images and in live view
- Export of measurement results to a spreadsheet or directly into the image
- Text annotations, grids and rulers with reference scale bar
Advanced features
- EDF (Extended Depth of Focus) - combines a series of images captured along the Z axis into a single image with an extended depth of field; invaluable when working with three-dimensional objects
- Image stitching - assembles a 2D panorama from multiple microscope frames
- Image processing filters, segmentation and automatic object counting
Who is this set intended for?
The BioLight 300 set with the DLT-Cam Basic 2 MP camera is an ideal choice for:
- Students of natural sciences and their teachers
- Amateur naturalists and hobbyists
- Collectors of minerals, coins or stamps
- Anyone who wants to pursue microscopy at a solid level without investing in professional equipment
Thanks to the camera and the powerful software, this set is also ready for documentation of observations and basic scientific work.
