It’s that time again when we are once more accepting entries for our annual imaging competition with a difference!
In our Image in an Image Competition, we judge all entries based on the quality of the image, but also what can be seen in the image – like peacock feathers or animals…


This will be our third competition, and we can’t wait to see what this year’s participants will come up with! We will be accepting entries until 31st July 2022.
What is the prize?
The prize this year is one of our most popular Microscope Illumination Systems – a pE-300white direct fit model. This three-channel Illumination System offers intense, broad-spectrum LED illumination for fluorescence microscopy that is perfect for hospital and regular research laboratory environments. The system is a mercury-free alternative that is safer, more controllable and precise than traditional bulb illumination options. Spectral coverage is from the UV (DAPI excitation) to the red region (Cy5 excitation).
