Le microscope métallographique permet d'examiner des surfaces d'objets opaques [...] Dans [le] modèle [...] dit inversé, la platine est au niveau supérieur; on dépose sur elle l'objet à examiner; l'objectif étant placé sous l'objet, il n'y a pas de mise au point à faire puisque la surface examinée est dans le plan de la platine.
