This magnification value determines the diameter of the field of view when the low power objective is used. A microscope's field of view refers to the diameter of the circular optical light that is visible when viewing an object under the microscope. This value forms an inverse relationship with magnification, which means that increasing the magnification results in the reduction of the field of view.
A fluorescence microscope is much the same as a conventional light microscope with added features to enhance its capabilities. 1  The conventional microscope uses visible light (400-700 nanometers) to illuminate and produce a magnified image of a sample.
