Review on CISNO USB Digital Microscope: 2MP, 1000X Magnification, 8 LED, Windows-Compatible by Lamar Hopkins

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Handy lighted magnifier/image capture device is easy to use once focused

I purchased this item on a whim during Walmart Prime Day due to its low sale price and am not disappointed. After installing the supplied driver software and attaching the USB cable to my computer the LED bulbs lit up and the magnifier was ready to use. The software is a simple display/screen capture tool with no control over the image focus. All focus control is managed by a large rotary dial on the magnifier tube. The focus is a little tricky to use since any movement tends to move the magnifier off position, but with a fixed focal length you can capture an image easily. I have used this to magnify small insects, skin and fine art images with no problem.

Pros
  • Portability: Small and lightweight, the CISNO USB Digital Microscope is easy to carry around, making it perfect for outdoor use or traveling.
Cons
  • The microscope's price point is relatively high compared to other models with similar features, making it less accessible for budget-conscious customers
