Abstract
A microscope system includes: a microscope main body including an objective lens arranged in such a manner that an optical axis of the objective lens is aligned with an observation light path of the microscope main body; and an automatic focus unit including a light source, a dichroic mirror arranged so as to be inserted on or to be deviated from the observation light path and configured to reflect light emitted from the light source in a direction of the optical axis of the objective lens, and a dichroic mirror moving mechanism. The microscope main body further includes a controller having a dichroic mirror movement control unit configured to control the dichroic mirror moving mechanism to move the dichroic mirror to an arrangement position of the dichroic mirror on the observation light path, the arrangement position being correlated to the objective lens in advance.
