Perfect for soldering.
I got it for soldering. Never in my wildest dreams did I think I would find something so suited, and that worked so well, at such a low price. It has video out via USB-C, so I can use my big screen, which is a huge advantage; the controls are intuitive and easy - and it'll capture video or stills, which is nice.
But - the big feature, that I never saw coming - I was hoping that it would give me enough relief, between the objective and the "deck" - to solder under. I was hoping for 2 or 3 inches. I can run it up to its max relief/max height - about 6" of relief - and it'll still focus clearly! This microscope is probably a good choice for stamps, coins, and for bugs and whatnot for kids (with adult help) - but it is absolutely perfect for soldering (and trying to identify electronic components).
