Review on πŸ”¬ AmScope T490B-DK Compound Trinocular Microscope: WF10x and WF20x Eyepieces, 40X-2000X Magnification, Brightfield/Darkfield, Halogen Illumination, Abbe Condenser, Double-Layer Mechanical Stage, Sliding Head, High-Resolution Optics by Angela Jones

scope used? in Compound Microscopes

Microscope arrived quickly. Unfortunately it lacked a 100xs lens and clearly used a mechanical stage as it had several irreparable defects likely caused by corrosive reagents. I returned it. The microscope itself is very good for its price. The lenses I was able to test were clear, the Abbe condenser is a great light source although it heats up quickly, and the darkfield accessories worked as advertised. I would advise anyone buying an AmScope or any other brand of Revain microscope to inspect it thoroughly to make sure it is truly new.

Pros
  • Stylish and modern design
Cons
  • Protection
