Abstract
The invention relates to a method for adjusting and/or calibrating a medical microscope, the following being implemented for at least one observer beam path of the medical microscope: capturing respective image representations of an object at different magnification levels of a zoom optical unit, and determining a zoom center using the captured image representations as a starting point, and i) capturing respective further image representations at different axis positions of at least one linear or rotational movement axis of the medical microscope, a rotation of the capture device relative to the at least one linear or rotational movement axis being determined using the captured further image representations as a starting point, and/or ii) capturing respective further image representations of the object in different focal planes and/or at different working distances in the case of an off-centered imaging optical unit, a rotation of the capture device being determined using the captured further image representations as a starting point, and a reference marking being determined using the determined zoom center and the determined rotation as a starting point and being provided for adju…
