The maximum magnification of an oil immersion light microscope is about 1000X. For this you need an expensive microscope and a skilled operator. The cheap microscopes may say 650X on the box but they just make a small blurry image into a large blurry image.

What size can Light microscopes can magnify objects?
Most light micrscopes can be magnified to about 400, but a high tech light microscope can magnify up to 1500. According to my VLA (virtual learning) If this is what you are looking for, its 1,000 times __________________________________________________________________ -Up to about 1,000 times its size.
Which type of microscope can magnify objects up to a million times?
an electron microscope can magnify something up to 500,000 times
How the lenses in telescopes and microscopes help people make observations?
They make things seen at a length larger.
Which microscope has the greatest magnification transmission microscope or scanning microscope?
transmission microscopes. they can magnify an object 1 million times.
Are light microscopes more powerful than electron microscopes?
Yes, electron microscopes have a much higher possible magnification than compound light microscopes. An electron microscope is capable of 10,000,000 times magnification, whereas a good compound light microscope is capable of 1,000 - 2,000 times magnification.
Modern light microscopes can magnify up to how many times?
150 times

What is the main difference between compound light microscopes and electron microscopes?
light microscopes direct light onto the slide and magnify it, light microscopes also have a high and low power objective lens which can magnify up to 10, 40, 43 and 100 times total magnification whilst electron microscopes shoot electrons at the slide which give more detail and accuracy but the disadvantage is it can't view objects in color. electron microscopes can magnify up to 500.000 times total magnification.Light microscopes aren't as strong as an electron microscope in respect to zooming power. The specimen can remain alive in light microscope but for electron microscopes, preparation of the slides will kill the specimen.
How many times can an electron microscope magnify?
what magnification is electron microscope capable of
The best light microscopes can magnify images up to how many times?
1000X
A microscope that can magnify up to 500 000 times is the?
A electron microscope uses a beam of electrons instead of light to magnify objects up to 500,000 times actual size. A electron microscope has much higher resolving power than light microscopes.
Are compound microscopes used on nature walk?
No, they are not. Compound microscopes can make objects appear 100 to 400 times larger than they really are, some magnify objects as much as 1,000 times.
What is a light in a microscope?
Light microscopes can magnify objects up to 1000 times their actial size, and they are often used for dissections. Light in the light microscope allows the viewers to see the specimen that is being magnified.
What is the function of a light microscope?
Light microscopes can magnify objects up to 1000 times their actial size, and they are often used for dissections. Light in the light microscope allows the viewers to see the specimen that is being magnified.

What is the electron microscope used for?
The electron microscope is used to see cells and other miniscule objects that are too small for light microscopes. It shoots electrons to detect the shape of the object viewed under the microscope. It can magnify up to 2 million times, while the best of light microscopes are confined to about 2000 times.
