The support base member is effective to carry the optical device on a side opposite the leg members. The base member includes a device support surface on the side opposite the leg members, and has two opposed outer free end sections and two opposed edge portions extending along the device support surface. Each leg member includes at an outer free end thereof a foot that defines a footprint therebetween when the stand assembly is disposed in a free-standing condition on a stand assembly surface The stand assembly is effective to support the optical device on the device support surface and to suspend the objective lens over one of the opposed edge portions of the support base member.
