The Elmiskop II was a medium end Electron microscope manufactured by the Siemens Corporation. It was somewhat based on both the design and technology of the Elmiskop I which proceeded it.

Unlike the aformationed Elmiskop I, the Elmiskop II was a much simpler, and thus much less costly machine. Instead of the Elmiskop I's 5 Electromagnetic lenses, it only fetured 2, namely the Objective and a Projective lense furnished with a pol piece revolver. This revolver allowed the microscope to change magnification in the abscense of an intermediate lens, as is featured in almost all microscopes fallowing the ÜM100. The illumination system consisted merely of a simple triode Electron gun similar in design to that of the Elmiskop I. Much like that of the Elmiskop I, it also featured full adjustments and mechanical beam tilt, however it lacked the Stigmator seen in its bigger brother.
