Examples
A number of films have been made with the Ergonom range of microscopes. Most of them were made in the early 1990s with broadcast quality PAL video equipment that was state of the art in its time.
These videos have been transfered from the original master tapes to digital video and then reedited and updated with improved graphics and images where possible. For online internet viewing, we are now using the Windows Media Video (WMV) format and the image size has been reduced in size for better streaming. Most of these videos are also available in full DVD quality from our online store.
