An optical arrangement 10 for imaging a sample 20 comprises an illumination objective lens 30 for producing an illumination light sheet 40 and a detection objective lens 50 for imaging radiation from the sample 20. The light source objective lens 30 is arranged at an angle not normal to the detection objective lens 50. The microscope 10 may further include a camera position normal to the plane of the illumination 30 and detection 50 lenses and also a camera mounted in that position. The apparatus may also include a translatable illumination beam generator, which may comprise a movable mirror, in a back focal plane of the illumination lens 30. The arrangement could also have a further detection lens arranged at another non-perpendicular angle to the illumination lens 30 or possibly a plurality of objective lens that can be alternately used as an illumination and detection objective lenses. |
