User Manual

To get the best results from your Lab Kit, remember some simple

rules:

- before use, remove the blue transparent film from the

smartphone stage;

- the light source, the subject on the slide and the smartphone

objective (with the Blips lens attached) must be perfectly aligned to

avoid blurry images;

- remember to use the thicker transparent support for the Ultra

lens (4 mm), while the Micro lens works properly with the thinner

one (3 mm);

- If the distance between the lens and the sample is too far in any

position of the glass slide (it may happen for some smartphone

models), use the provided transparent foils to lift up the prepared

glass at the proper distance;

- Digitally zoom the sample for performing a fine tuning of the

focal distance and of the light alignment.

• To simplify free focusing with the Blips Micro lens, you can use the

sponge included in all kits as a smartphone holder. By gently

pressing on it, you can easily focus on the subject, avoiding too

much vibration.

• Keep in mind that virtually all smartphones on the market are

compatible with Blips. Accidental problems on focus or poor quality

images are generally caused by misuse of the lens and not by

incompatibility with the device used.
