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.

The condenser usually contains an aperture diaphragm to control and focus light on the specimen; light passes through the specimen and then is collected by an objective lens situated in a turret above the stage. The objective magnifies the light and transmits it to an oracular lens or eyepiece and into the userâs eyes.
