<p>The present invention relates to a microscope system configured to allow operability to be improved. An electric zoom 21 consecutively changes a magnification for a sample within a magnification changeable range. An electric revolver 24 switches an objective lens placed in an observation optical path to intermittently change the magnification for the sample. A control section 34 calculates a total magnification based on the magnification provided by the electric zoom 21 and the magnification of the objective lens currently placed in the observation optical path. The control section 34 controls the electric revolver 24 such that the objective lens placed in the observation optical path is switched when the magnification changed in response to the operation of causing the magnification of the electric zoom 21 to be changed falls outside the magnification changeable range of the electric zoom 21. The control section 34 determines a target magnification that is a magnification of the electric zoom 21 required to keep the total magnification obtained after the switching of the objective lens equal to the total magnification obtained before the switching of the objective lens. An electric zoom control section 32 controls the electric zoom 21 such that the magnification of the electric zoom 21 is set equal to the target magnification. The present invention is applicable to, for example, a stereoscopic microscope.</p> |
