Question

the greater the amount of light delivered to the object lens, the less resolution?

Answer 1

. In general, the greater the amount of light delivered to the objective lens, the greater the resolution. The size of the objective lens aperture (opening) decreases with increasing magnification, allowing less light to enter the objective lens. Thus, you will probably find it necessary to increase the light intensity at the higher magnifications.

Answer 2

Not necessarily. Depending on what you are trying to view on the microscope, different light apertures will give you a clearer view whatever it is you want to view.

For example, if you were to view an onion peel, you will find that it is very translucent and can be difficult to view under a great amount of light. Hence, you might find it easier to view on a lower light setting.

Overall, it really just depends on what you are trying to view and how much light is appropriate for that specific thing that you want to look at. Somethings that are very see-through may be more difficult to see under a bright light.
