This is a fine, inexpensive digital microscope
I was satisfied assembling and using this little scope. I've been using a small stereo dissector scope for years but needed a camera so I tried this small digital scope. It's fine for the low magnification I need, it's not as good at the extreme 1200x it claims, but it's serviceable at the higher magnification. It can be an advantage that the device has a rechargeable battery that will power the lights and display for at least an hour without being plugged in.
The focus is a bit finicky to use, isn't a rack and pinion knob like on an ordinary scope, it's a knurled ring that is turned directly. And it's not a true "zoom" scope as advertised, as it needs to be refocused when the head is moved up or down to adjust the magnification.
But it can be sharply focused and it has adjustable magnification. I think it's excellent value for someone who wants to get good videos or photos of biological specimens or the coins in the headline.
