PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a manipulator capable of detecting force of an operation needle applied to a sample by observing the operation needle in an observation view of a microscope. SOLUTION: A micro-manipulator 30 is provided with an operation needle 32, and a flat support member 34 supporting that, and the operation needle 32 is fixed to the support member 34 by a junctrion part 36. The operation needle 32 is diagonally installed on the flat support member 34. As a tip part 38 of the operation needle 32 is applied to a sample 12, the operation needle 32 is deflected and the postion between the tip part 32 and the junction part 36 in a view of a microscope is changed. Based on this position change, force of the operation needle 32 applied to the sample 12 is detected.
