Great Microscope: Binoculars and Scopes

I bought an Opti-TekScope that comes with a stand. The stand is easy to assemble and easy to focus. The course setting is located on the vertical part of the stand and is mainly used to set the field of view. The fine focus is on the microscope itself. Both are very easy to use. The microscope has enough power so that I can solder the smallest electronic components onto a circuit board. I also used it to look at the $20 bill for fun and it shows a lot of detail. The LEDs at the end of theโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Binoculars and Scopes
Cons
  • Lots of Stuff

Might as well be the "BEST " USB Microscope

This gadget outperformed another (returned) USB microscope, mainly because its software failed on a brand new Dell computer with Windows 7 64-bit preinstalled crashed , like the returned brand, did not mention Win8 in the manual, which means the products have been on the market for over 4 years.) True 2MP resolution actually provided more detail in very small objects. Another brand advertised 2MP, but it was actually only 1.3, interpolated to 2MP. Compared to the (returned) gadget, this oneโ€ฆ

  • Electronics
Cons
  • New Competitor Appeared

That's a good magnifying glass.

Update June 14: See attached photo. When fiddling with the focus, I accidentally twisted it past the limit. A thin blob of glue holds the scope together. The outer tube and upper focus assembly fell apart in my hands. Then I carefully pulled out the circuit board. 2 thin black wires connect to and power the ring of 8 LEDs on the front panel. The entire board moves in and out when focusing. This will move the CMOS sensor closer or farther from the lens (the little black thing next to the tube)โ€ฆ

Pros
  • Microscopes
Cons
  • Expandable

I like the scale but I have two problems.

I installed the camera driver for windows as well as the AMCAP application when trying unsuccessfully to use a Koolertron 1080P 5 inch LCD monitor that I had previously purchased and returned. I couldn't get any software to work with it as a USB device. When I plugged the Opti-Tekscope into my laptop's USB port, it was immediately recognized by the software, which didn't work with the Koolertron. I use Windows Camera with Opti as it seems pretty intuitive and has great editing features likeโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Camera and Photo
Cons
  • Concise Manual
