USB Digital Microscope, Handheld 40X-1000X Magnification Endoscope, 8 LED Mini Video Camera for Windows 7/8/10 Mac Linux Android

This bit of kit has proven itself to be really very very good. At the price I half expected it to be a cheap plastic toy microscope and was pleasantly surprised by its quality. It has proved to be very well made bit of kit and performs perfectly well for a multitude of potential uses. Connectivity to my Mac (OS 10.11) via USB is literally plug and play. As a USB 2.0 UVC PC Camera it works fine with Apple's Photo Booth and with Digital Viewer (free web download). However it is worth noting that the Zoom and Snap buttons on the 'scope are unavailable in this configuration and maybe better connected to a PC. Minimal set up provides 'out of the box' use and good documentation is included - if needed. The provided stand, although perfectly functional with some attention, is a little limiting and maybe a bit fiddly. Better - more easily adjusted stands are available and transforms the ease of use. The array of LEDs work well to illuminate the subject being viewed. Overall the resolution of image provided is adequate for the range of magnification and works fine. It is an excellent tool for both workshop and home use. Most of all it is an excellent educational tool and a great present for any budding young scientist. The 'scope is lots of fun and provides endless hours of exploratory activity. The 40X -1000x range of magnification works well and, although maybe not providing views at a cellular level, is really great for examining plant and insect life in finer detail. Pictured is the stylus from my record player that has now been inspected for wear and cleaned... and an ant's head. Great value, good quality and a very good buy.

What a wonderful microscope It feels to be well constructed and came with solid a zip-case that holds the microscope and stand securely. There is also a little additional space to add a few tools (Tweezers probes etc) While not exactly plug and play with my PC and phone it was very quick to get set up. The photos were taken in around 10 minutes from opening the box. A good set of setup instructions come with the microscope. (The supplier’s website has these also if like me you need a larger font.) Adjustable illumination is a nice feature and useful, for example, when looking a circuit board that have a protective (reflective) varnish. Not that this is its intended use, it was the first thing that came to hand Very good magnification. The picture quality is sharp and doesn’t show any distortion around the edges throughout the magnification range. I can see me having a lot of fun with this and suspect that once on the desk in my study will spend little time back in its case! All in all, good hobby microscope that is easy to use and portable. I suspect it would be a useful addition to an inspection workshop or field engineer (Could have done with this 20 years ago!)

I bought this to get a closer look at natural objects foraged on walks and because it was affordable. Easy to use once you realise it only focuses at close range. It would be even better if you were able to focus on something slightly further away, say 15mm. (There is a hack for this on youtube but it involves taking the microscope apart to shorten the length between lens and sensor). I am very pleased with it overall. Pictures show the texture of a very small leaf and the tip of a plant less than 10 mm across

I needed a magnifying device for checking the quality of soldering on PCB assemblies for work and recording this with images, so a magifying glass did not do the job. I thought I would give this USB digi scope a try for the price and was really surprised at the quality. I soon dicovered that adjusting the scope can be a bit tricky due to the high magnification and the better qualilty stand with adjusting gear is a requirementfor constant results, but this is not a critisism of the product, and I will be getting the adjustable stand ASAP. Great product.

Cons: - stated magnification is just number that can't be comapred with real scopes - mount is flimsy and hard to use on max magnification, you'd rather attach it to something sturdy - focusing distance moves when you adjust magnification and for significant part of the range it is inside the scope tube, as a result it is only usable close to 1000x and from the middle of the range down to 40x - case quality is super low Pros: - its a UVC webcam and works with any software, visible as /dev/videoX. can just use vlc. - picture quality is ok-ish

I was very surprised how good this microscope is. For the money paid it was exceptional value. I've attached a photo of a hallmark I was trying to decipher, the microscope made it very easy. The only downside is the stand has very limited adjustment, but there is an optional adjustable stand which easily fixes this. Overall I'm very pleased.

What a great little microscope, (5 Stars) It looks and feels to be well put together and even came with a zip-case that keep everything together. There's even room for a couple of screw drivers in my case. It was pretty simple set up almost plug and play. I like the adjustable 8 LED illumination feature, this is helpful with anything under the Microscope that glare. Setup instructions come with the microscope but you can always download them from the web site. Very good magnification. The picture quality is sharp and doesn’t show any distortion around the edges Throughout the magnification range. I can see this being very useful for me. All in all, a very good microscope for the price that is easy to use and I will be using this microscope mainly for circuit boards and have found it very useful. My Name is Derek and I am Very Happy with the Product.

عملي ومناسب للأعمال الدقيقة والزووم عالي وواضح جدا.

I got this but it doesnt fit my phone and even when I found an application on windows device it worked poorly. Also it shows that it comes with a cse. Well. There is no case.. I dont recommend it at all.

Eine günstige Lösung um am PC elektronische Teile zu prüfen. Hier reichen mir die unteren Auflösungen und die werden klar dargestellt. Einrichtung der Kamera ist einfach, ein aktuelles Windows erkennt diese automatisch. Auch die integrierte Kamera App funktioniert sofort. Die auf einer beiliegenden Mini CD mitgelieferten Treiber und App funktionieren ebenfalls. Die Helligkeit der Beleuchtung kann über einem Drehregler im Kabel reguliert werden. Der Stecker unterstützt USB-A und Mikro-USB, USB-C wird über einen zusätzlichen, mitgelieferten Adapter ermöglicht. Getestet habe ich USB-A und USB-C, beides hat problemlos funktioniert.

The price is right and it works as expected. As with any camera with this much magnification, it is hard to hold still. The stand works very well for this. I needed to be able to see very small stuff. This works great an I can do close in work. The close in picture is not of solder pads, but of LED mounted on a 7 segment display. The tiny wire is invisible to the naked eye. Also the unit is back far enough from the PC board that I can still get tools in to work as needed. I am very happy with this unit and will use it as I repair equipment.

Ett digitalt mikroskop med inbyggt LED-ljus som förstorar från 40 - 1000 gånger. Själv använder jag den för reparation av elektronik men om man har insekter eller annat som hobby så fungerar det också mycket bra. Några program medföljer så att man snabbt är igång. Det går att köpa mikroskop som visar större ytor, men då är priset 20 gånger högre. Det här räcker gott och väl för mina behov.
