The microscope includes a base having a lower portion and an upper portion, the lower portion configured to support the microscope. The microscope further includes a body having a first portion, a second portion, and an intermediate portion extending between the first and second portions. The body is rotatably coupled to the base at a rotational coupling that defines a rotating axis that extends in a longitudinal direction with respect to the microscope.
