▼ More about this microscope part
The Carl Zeiss ICM 405 inverted microscope is an advanced version of the Carl Zeiss IM 35 inverted microscope. The main differences between the ICM 405 and the IM 35 are the ICM 405's more advanced microphotography capabilities.
However, many users treat these two models as essentially the same microscope and use the name “Zeiss IM 35” for both, sometimes only specifying that it is a “Zeiss IM 35 with photo output”.
Both models were also sold under the Opton brand, in which case they are respectively called Opton IM 35 and Opton ICM 405. Users often refer to them as a “Zeiss Opton microscope”.
