Best Answer

You use the 3 objective lenses of a compound microscope to switch powers. There's LOW, MEDIUM, and HIGH power. With LOW power, you can magnify what you're looking at. With HIGH power, you can see things that you can't see with a naked eye.

The objective lens with the lowest magnification (i.e. lowest number) will have the largest field of view. This is generally a x4 objective. This along with a x10 eyepiece gives x40 overall. This may give a field of view with a diameter of around 4.5mm.
