The Kentfaith Digital Camera is a budget-friendly option perfect for beginners and casual photographers. It features a 64 MP resolution for sharp images, and 16x digital zoom. The simple design and user-friendly connection make it easy to use, it also has a reasonably sized screen that is great for framing and reviewing shots. However, the camera struggles in low-light places, and the digital zoom can reduce image quality. Even with these drawbacks, it offers good value for its price, making it a solid choice for those new to photography and other beginners. And the fact that it is already provided with a 32GB SD card is good. Overall a great camera.

I must say, I am thoroughly impressed with its performance. This camera offers outstanding image quality, capturing fine details and producing stunning photos that exceeded my expectations.

One of the standout features of this camera is its lightweight design. It's surprisingly compact and easy to carry around, making it ideal for travel and on-the-go photography. I appreciated this aspect as it allows me to capture moments without feeling weighed down by heavy equipment.

The autofocus function on this camera is exceptional. It quickly locks onto subjects and ensures sharp and precise focus, even in challenging lighting conditions. This feature has significantly improved my photography skills, allowing me to capture subjects with speed and accuracy.

Furthermore, the camera's sensor is another aspect that sets it apart from its competitors. The sensor delivers excellent low-light performance, resulting in clear and vibrant images, even in dimly lit environments. It truly enhances the overall quality of the photographs, providing a rich and immersive visual experience.

You get a rotating and swiveling camera that is equipped with a motion sensor and an intercom function.
For communicative operation, the app has to be installed on the smartphone/tablet, which works flawlessly compared to many camera apps, is easy to use and allows all essential configurations.
If you have done an installation of this kind before or are already running Cloud Edge, integrating the cam is a breeze. But even newcomers are made easy by the precisely described German-language instructions.
The result is a qualitatively flawless HD live image, in this case with an all-round view.
Important: The camera lamp is supplied with power via a power supply unit, not directly via 230V. This must be taken into account during installation, as the cable from the power supply to the camera can not be extended without cutting it off.

Excited to take some awesome holiday photos

Very good digital camera for the price

A microscope can have high magnification, but poor resolution. Racking the microscope from up to down optically projects an ever-smaller portion (field of view) of the specimen onto the microscopes CCD sensor. The result is magnification with increased resolution (limited by the optics and CCD resolution). The up/down buttons on the microscope digitally magnify by selecting a subset of the sensor’s pixels and digitally upscaling them. The image is bigger (magnified), but there is no increase in resolution (like watching SD programming upscaled on a HD set). The pixel density of the display determines the viewed specimen size on the screen. A good analogy is an HD video is much smaller on your phone than on a large-screen HD TV, but both have the same HD resolution. It’s just that the cellphone is smaller with a far greater pixel density. Magnification without increased resolution is sometimes called “empty magnification”. It is fine for soldering circuit boards, but not useful where both magnification and resolution are needed (i.e., cell structure).
I made the following measurements using a slide (w/ mm scale) and measuring the apparent size on the scope’s screen (no zoom):
- High point (Lowest Power): 22mm on slide measured ~90 mm on screen (~4x) with ~23x13 mm FOV
- Low point (Highest Power): 2 mm on slide measured ~90 mm on screen (~45x) with ~2 mm x 1.1 mm FOV
The digital zoom button (up arrow) provides an additional 2x zoom (~90x max on the microscope's display). Displaying the image to a 27” HD display provides ~6x increase in apparent image size, but no increase in resolution. I assume the CCD sensor is HD (1980x1080), but could not confirm.
Images were sharp with good color on the microscope screen. I would rate the build quality as average for the price. The lighting system is good (and adjustable), but could use better diffusers. The gooseneck lights are definitely needed at low focus (high rack). The UV filter is threaded, but attached with double-sided tape. The rack and pinon focuser had a bit of play, but acceptable in this price range. The barrel focuser was a little stiff. Wireless control did not work out of the box, but I was able to move the circuit board to make contact the battery (not included). No PC software was in the box, nor a download link provided; however, the seller did provide link on request. The instruction manual left a bit to be desired – but all-in-all, my initial impression is that it is acceptable for its intended purpose (i.e., viewing objects visible to the naked eye and circuit board soldering).

Few areas are harder to assess than a photographer's equipment. A lot of very subjective opinions on technical devices meet here and in a scene that has to fight against very good image results with smartphones. The adapter ring is solidly made and fits perfectly on both sides of the products to be combined. On the camera side, the Nikon D5300 with 24M pixels is mounted on a 3/4 sensor. The occasional purchase of older lenses with a 42mm thread is then the experimental part of the hobby. For example, a purely analog Carl Zeiss Jena Sonnar 2.8 / 180mm finds its place and no longer has to stand in the closet. The mechanical connection via the adapter is very stable, the compensation of the focal length works with the camera's not full-format sensor and the image is good to very good for such an old lens. A useful adapter for anyone who wants to use old lenses on new cameras.
