Abstract

A microscopy system comprises a microscopy optics and a stand supporting the microscopy optics. The stand has a plurality of hinges, of which a first group comprises a position detecting sensor for sensing a hinge position and a second group comprising an actuator for the change of the hinge position. In an automatic control mode, the actuators are controlled in dependence of signals of the position detecting sensors.
