The numerical aperture of a microscope objective defines the objective's resolution. Each microscope objective has a minimum and maximum magnification necessary for the details in an image to be resolved. A simple formula for the minimum value is (500 x NA). And for the maximum magnification (1000 x NA).
Revolving Nosepiece or Turret: This is the part that holds two or more objective lenses and can be rotated to easily change power. Objective Lenses: Usually you will find 3 or 4 objective lenses on a microscope. They almost always consist of 4X, 10X, 40X and 100X powers. When coupled with a 10X (most common) eyepiece lens, we get total magnifications of 40X (4X times 10X), 100X , 400X and 1000X.
