Table 2 – Long Working Distance Objectives
| Designation | Magnification | Working Distance |
|---|---|---|
| ELWD | 20x | 11.0 mm |
| ELWD | 50x | 8.7 mm |
| ELWD | 100x | 2.0 mm |
| SLWD | 10x | 20.3 mm |
Is the working distance less or greater than the high power lens was focused?
Yes. – The working distance is less than that of the high-power lens. – It is desirable to begin focusing with a low-power lens because the field is larger, making it easier to find the specimen on the slide, and the working distance is larger, reducing the chance of hitting the slide with the lens.
Does the working distance increase or decrease as the magnification increases?
Working distance and magnification are inversely related. As you increase the magnification, the working distance decreases very rapidly. Oil-immersion lenses, which are often used for 100x objective lenses, are very, very close the specimen when optimal focus is achieved.
Does the working distance change when moving from the high dry lens and the oil immersion lens?
The working distance decreases as you increase magnification. The high power objective lens has to be much closer to the specimen than the low-power objective lens in order to focus. Working distance is inversely proportional to magnification.

What is a working distance?
The distance between the front edge of the objective lens and the specimen surface (with the surface of the cover glass in case of the cover glass objective lens) when the specimen is focused. …
WHAT IS lens working distance?
The working distance defines the free space between the object and the leading edge of the lens. Standard lenses are generally designed to focus objects ranging from infinity to a minimum object distance (MOD) in front of the lens. If the distance between lens and camera sensor is increased, the MOD can be reduced.
How does working distance affect magnification?
Working distance is the distance between the objective lens and the specimen. At low magnification the working distance is relatively long. As you increase the magnification the working distance decreases dramatically.
What objective lens has the shortest working distance?

|---|---|
| This objective lens provides the second highest magnification | High-dry |
| This objective lens provides the lowest magnification | Low Power |
| This objectivie lens has the shortest working distance | oil immersion |

What is working distance of a lens?
What is the working distance of a lens?
The working distance defines the free space between the object and the leading edge of the lens. Standard lenses are generally designed to focus objects ranging from infinity to a minimum object distance (MOD) in front of the lens. If the distance between lens and camera sensor is increased, the MOD can be reduced.
What happens to the working distance of a camera?
Working Distance. The working distance is the distance between the specimen and objective lens. The working distance decreases as you increase magnification. The high power objective lens has to be much closer to the specimen than the low-power objective lens in order to focus. Working distance is inversely proportional to magnification.
Which is better a low or high power lens?
– The working distance is less than that of the high-power lens. – It is desirable to begin focusing with a low-power lens because the field is larger, making it easier to find the specimen on the slide, and the working distance is larger, reducing the chance of hitting the slide with the lens.
What happens to the working distance of a microscope?
The working distance decreases as you increase magnification. The high power objective lens has to be much closer to the specimen than the low-power objective lens in order to focus. Working distance is inversely proportional to magnification. Microscopes magnify an object’s appearance by bending light.
