Overview

A repair technician or hobbyist gets a forward binocular stereo microscope here, with top lighting for opaque objects and bottom lighting for slides. The included camera streams live video and takes stills on a computer.

Choose it for the camera, the measurement tools and the four magnification settings in one kit. The limit is software: Windows has driver and software, while Mac has driver only, and the listing gives no dimensions.

Who it's for

Watchmaking, coin and stamp collecting, electronics work and education are named in the description. Mac users should note the software limitation, and anyone looking at cells needs a compound microscope.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Top and bottom lighting
  • Four magnification settings
  • Rubber eye guards
Cons

Performance notes

Interchangeable optics produce four magnification settings. The camera captures what the eyepieces see and sends it to a computer for editing and measuring lengths, angles and areas. Top light suits three-dimensional objects and bottom light suits slides.
