Customer Reviews
I have used many microscopes that cost 5 to 10
times more than this smaller version and I would recommend this to
anyone who needs to do biological or metallurgical work at magnfications
from about 40X to 2000X. I used a calibrated grid to calibrate all of
the lenses with the computer that I am using, which is a Windows 7
Professional driven Compaq. It is very easy to set up and use but you
need to go on-line to get the most recent manual. There is a paper in
the box that lets you know exactly where to find this. It is important
because the manual this is in the CD is not for this microsope. If you
are going to use this as a metallurgical microscope (not using
tranmitted light but using reflected light) there is no through lense
lighting. You will need to have an outside light. I purchased the
AMScope LED-8WD from Amazon to go with this microscope.
I had read a review that says you can not run the software on a Windows 8 machine. That is true if it is Windows 8RT but not a true Windows 8 machine. I installed the software on two of my Windows 8 computers and it works very well. You may have an issue with the drivers because windows installation may say that it is incompatible. Ignore this and make sure that you install the drivers for the camera before you plug in the USB cable. When installing the software leave the USB unplugged until you get a message saying that you need to plug in the camera. I would be happy to share more about this if you get into trouble.
As an additional note: I also purchased the AmScope 20x-40x-80x Digital Stereo Microscope with top and bottom illumination. Which is another great microscope with digital camera lense. You have to remove the lense from the body and it is held in there with a very small phillips screw
