AmScopeM150C-E-A 40X-1000X LED Cordless All-Metal Framework Full-Glass Optical Lens Student Compound Microscope with Coarse & Fine Focusing + Digital Camera USB Imager

The cd that came with the microscope was scratched and unreadable. I have been trying to get this problem fixed for weeks now. I did download new software but the microscopes software doesn’t recognize the cameras software.Four people have tried to help- so far without success. I also asked if a replacement cd could be sent to me but that request hasn’t been answered yet.

Muy lindo bien empacado completo, buen precio muy cómodo que pueda visualizarse en pantalla, lo único es que el aumento total de 1000x es la combinación del objetivo de 40x y el lente de 25x, no viene con objetivo de 100x

Optics are passable it's a good scope for the beginner or hobbyist. Got the camera working with Windows 10.

We've used this microscope almost every single day for the past 7 months straight! We use it to test the Monarch butterflies we raise and make sure they are not infected with disease (OE - Ophryocystis elektroscirrha) before we release them into the wild.We have only used the digital camera a handful of times, since the microscope is easily strong enough to see the OE spores without the aide of the computer. That being said, I am including 2 pics taken with the USB camera attachment one showing a "clean" monarch, and one with clear OE spores.TIP to SAVE $$$: Since we raised over 500+ butterflies this season, slides for each one would be incredibly expensive, so we opted to use a piece of clear-view scotch tape to collect the scales/spore sample by rubbing it gently onto the imago's abdomen, and then affixing it to paper index cards ( Mead Plain Index Cards, 4 X 6 Inches (63006) ). < That particular "card" is ridiculously thin and cheap so it will only work for a one-sided use.Anyway, using this technique, we don't use the built-in light under the "slide" (or in our case index card), we just illuminate it from above with a handheld flashlight. Quaint, but it gets the job done quickly and inexpensively. I'm including pics of our set-up with the index cards & flashlight ( Rockbirds Protable LED Flashlight, A100 Mini High Lumens Zoomable Super Bright 3 Mode Tactical Flashlight, Best Tools for Hiking, Hunting, Fishing and Camping (2 Pack) ).Overall, I would certainly recommend this compound microscope and it's a great price, too! Hopefully pics will be helpful in explaining further. If so, please click "yes" to it being helpful!

Awesome. We purchased this for tours for kids (and adults) to show what lives in Wastewater at the plant. We call them the "bugs"...these are good guys in Wastewater that help break down flocc. You will be able to see microscopic bugs with this microscope. The photo shows a Stalked Cilate- good guy. We were also able to take a video of a Rotifer (she was awesome). I recommend this equipment. Can't wait to show the kids.
