A Professional Tool for Work or Fun

Richardson Field Microscopes (RFM's) provide the best microscope images in remote locations as well as on lab benches. Both versions are so simple to use that they can be enjoyed by all ages. They mount easily on standard tripods, making field work as easy and enjoyable as microscopy in the lab. You will find they are light, portable, and rugged enough to travel safely in your backpack or fanny bag.

The basic RFM-2 features a standard stage.

The RFM's conform to the RMS (DIN) microscope specification accepting all RMS optical components supplied by Richardson Technologies and other sources. C-Mount video or digital camera adapters mean you can record and store RFM images too.
