  • Great Coin Scope For the Price
Color: Gray
This camera is excellent for the price. The stand that comes with it isn't great. It needs a heavier base to keep the camera from tipping. Also, the round base gets in the way of the object you're looking at. But it does a good job. After reading all the negative reviews, I've concluded that they just didn't know how to use the camera. For instance, you don't have to clip in the camera 180 degrees backwards, block the focus dial, in order to make the image right-side up. The scope needs to be as close as possible, without touching the object you're viewing. They must of had the scope too far away from the object. Even so, in the settings you can select to flip and mirror the image, if needed. I like how the zoom button keeps the image in focus. The light is dimmable as well. Plus! it comes with a carrying case. Installing it on a Windows 10 PC was very easy. Popped in the mini CD that comes with it, installed the software, plugged in the scope, and was up and running in minutes. Only complaint is the very cheap stand. So buy this camera knowing the base is just included to give you the ability to use the scope right out of the box. Honestly? It wouldn't be that bad if the base was weighted for better stability. Which is key when using the focus dial. You will want to purchase a quality camera mount if you plan to use this on a daily bases. I recommend pairing this scope with a good metal rack-n-pinion camera mount. Doing so will make this inexpensive camera comparable to some higher priced scopes. Without question.

  • Decent quality and well worth the price
Color: Gray
I bought this specifically for one purpose-- to check for stress cracking on a bent steel part. I wanted to make sure there were no visible cracks on an intact part, and I wanted to inspect the crack on a failed part. Since I knew I wouldn't be using this all that much, I didn't want to spend a lot of money. I have some familiarity with fairly high-end microscopes such as the stereo scope sold by Mantis. I don't always have access to it and wanted something I could keep on my desk for quick first-pass inspections. I was fully aware that I'd be taking a significant hit on quality and performance, but for this application it didn't really matter. The first thing I did when I got it was to look for software that would run it. I'm not a fan of installing whatever mystery software is included with bargain-basement equipment like this, even if it passes all tests the VirusTotal website can throw at it. Besides, what computer still has an optical media drive in 2024? Mine sure doesn't. I settled on the Oasis Scientific Vividia software, which is free and runs as a single executable file with no install required. It's an older, no-frills piece of software, but it works. You'll have to re-select the USB microscope every time you want to run it, as it defaults to the computer's internal camera (webcam) and won't remember the new settings once you close the program down. But it's free and VirusTotal gave it a clean bill of health, so for now it's what I use. The camera works fine, though it too is a bit quirky. You can adjust the magnification, but it also adjusts the focal length at the same time. What this means is that there will only be one particular sweet spot for focus at a given microscope-to-part distance. If you want different magnification, you'll have to move the microscope up or down until the focal point you have matches the amount of magnification you want. This was not unexpected but it gets fiddly because the microscope's stand is not cumbersome to adjust. A rack-and-pinion height adjustment would be worlds better, but you won't that for $20. Maybe someday I'll design and 3D print my own. Yeah, right, like I have the time to do all that. Adjusting the focus is done with a rotating ring on the body of the microscope. Adjusting it also tends to shift the microscope around since the stand is not particularly rigid, so you end up chasing the focus around a bit. If you need to hold the part off-angle like I did, you end up needing three hands. But for $20, all of this is to be expected. The good news is that you can get good-quality images out of this thing. Mine works on my Windows PC and on an Android phone. For Android I use the Camerafi2 app that also works on my 14-foot endoscope cam. I was able to use the USB-C to USB-A adapter that came with the microscope, but only when I removed my phone's case. If I decide to use this with my phone in the future, I'll invest in a male USB-C to female USB-A cable to work with my phone case. This isn't the best USB microscope you can find. It's a very inexpensive piece of equipment that is still way better than not having any microscope at all. It produces reasonably good images if you're patient and is a good first scope if you just want to experiment. If you plan to use a scope more frequently, I strongly recommend a more expensive model with better ergonomics. However, for infrequent use on a tight budget, this is a viable choice. ... show more

  • Great Affordable Digital Microscope
Color: Gray
What can I say, this digital microscope is great, affordable and awesome. The images are very sharp 1080p and it is easy to use, my grandson have been using this digital microscope for days now he really loves it and his been taking pictures a lot of dead insects he can find. This microscope is so easy to use that my 6 years old grandson can operate the microscope by himself making focus adjustment . I am hoping this unit will last. Pros: Sharp pictures images Record sharp videos using the apps Easy to use Zoom power is great Comes with metal stand holder USB plug and play thru computer camera without using the apps Easy zoom adjustment Carrying case Easy installation app from website Cons: Metal stand base is too light Overall the digital microscope is great to use for beginners. I recommend this microscope. ... show more

  • big disappointment
Color: Gray
Impossible to work with. Don't even try to work the flimsy stand, it will save you loads of frustration if you don't. You need to download the viewing program, which is on a mini disc. I had to redo this step 3 times, before it finally (sort of) worked. Not available as an app in the App store, and that should be a red flag right there. Trying to view anything through the microscope gives you nothing to look at most of the time. Sometimes a reddish, brownish glowing background, sometimes your item to view for a fraction of a second, but mostly Nothing. If you are lucky enough to catch a glimpse of the object you'd like to study up close, the image will be frozen, and if out of focus, the moment you try to focus it, you move the instrument enough to lose the picture. Of course it is possible that I bought a defective product. I actually hope so, because if the manufacturer really intende the product to work as it does for me, than he deserves to go bankrupt. A lot of reviews from others state this is a fine product. Maybe I expected too much from it. Like being able to look at something in close up...... Unfortunately, the return window has closed. This purchase was a mistake. ... show more
