The advantage of a parfocal microscope=when different objective lenses are rotated, the object being examined will remain in view
Microscope lenses that are parfocal and parcentric allows the user to changed between lenses will keeping the speicemen focused and centered, instead of having to adjust the x, y or z plane (i.e. focus and the stage).
Canon parfocal lenses offer the benefit of maintaining focus when zooming in or out, providing consistent sharpness throughout the zoom range. This feature is particularly useful in professional photography and videography, as it allows for smooth and seamless transitions without the need for constant refocusing.

The feature on a microscope that allows you to switch between objective lenses with minimal focusing is called parfocal. This means that when you change from one objective lens to another, the specimen remains in focus and only requires minor adjustments to fine-tune the focus.
It's Parfocal property."Parfocal: This is a focus issue. When changing from one objective to another, the new image should be either in focus or close enough so that you can refocus with only minor adjustments. Most microscopes are parfocal." from www.microscope-microscope.org
Parfocal, commonly used in high end zoom lenses and video lenses.
lenses: set up or arranged so that when one lens is changed for another, there is no change in focus. * Applied usually to turret mounted lenses e.g. on microscope; also in telescopes: ~ eyepieces: changing one for another does not require refocusing. * When the distance from the object to the rear principal plane of each lens is equal, they are said to be parfocal.
The parfocal feature in a microscope allows for maintaining focus when switching between objective lenses without needing significant readjustment. This is achieved by aligning the focal planes of different objectives.
parfocal
Parfocal is the term used to describe the feature of a microscope that allows for switching between objective lenses with minimal or no need for refocusing. This is a convenient feature that helps maintain focus when switching between different magnifications.
One advantage of combining lenses is that it allows for magnification powers to be multiplied. By using multiple lenses together, the overall magnification can be increased, providing a greater level of detail and clarity in the resulting image.
