About Microscopes
Microscopes are instruments used to enhance the resolution of an object or image. Types include compound, stereo, or digital. Compound microscopes use a compound optical system with an objective lens and an eyepiece. Stereo microscopes show object depth in a three-dimensional image. Digital microscopes are used to display an image on a monitor, rather than looking through a lens. Microscopes can have monocular (one), binocular (two), or trinocular (three) eyepieces, with varying magnification abilities. Magnification ability refers to the size of an image. Resolution, also known as resolvant power, refers to the clarity of the image. The interaction between field of view (FOV), numerical aperture (NA), and working distance (WD) determines resolution. Microscopes can control magnification through a fixed focus, or through a range of adjustments. They can also utilize LED, fluorescent, and mirror light sources to help control viewing capabilities. Microscopes are widely used in education, lab research, biology, metallurgy, engineering, chemistry, manufacturing, and in the medical, forensic science, and veterinary industries. AmScope has been manufacturing microscopy equipment since 1996, headquartering in Irvine, CA.

Dotato di quatto diversi ingrandimenti, è un microscopio che permette di osservare il mondo microscopico in modo semplice ed economico.La visione i due ingrandimenti minori in offre una qualità davvero alta, che però scende se utilizziamo gli altri.Questo però non impedisce di osservare anche cellule del sangue e batteri che sono davvero piccoli (previa colorazione ovviamente).Non potrà fornire quei dettagli necesari ad un laboratorio, ma a cui un privato può fare anche a meno.

元々、顕微鏡は頂いた物（Do Nature STV-451M）があったんですが、プラスチック製なので、ちょっとした振動で揺れて観察しにくい（下手すると酔う）、400倍の画質でもボヤケてピントが合わせずらいなどがあって、個人的にはかなり奮発して購入。子供の学習や趣味的に使うので、もう少し安いものでも良かったかもしれないんですが、どうせなら高校くらいまで使えるものにしたかったので。AmScopeというメーカーは聞いたことなかったけど、調べてみると、海外じゃそれなりに実績もあり、何よりコスパが良かった。同社のB120C-Eの調光できるLEDは魅力的だったんですが、カメラの性能があまり良くなかったので、お値段重視でこちらを選択。コンセントプラグはアメリカ式の3穴タイプです。正しいのかは分かりませんが、私は細身のタップにそのままさして使ってます。今のところ、特に不具合はありませんが、気になる方はアダプタを使った方が良いのかも！？顕微鏡は学校の授業でちょっと触った程度なので、絞りとかその他専門的なことは分かりませんが、ピントが粗動と微動があるのですごくピントが合わせやすい。高倍率にすると若干光量不足は感じるものの、ピントが合わせやすいので、ここで挫折することがありませんでした。今回、プランクトンの観察を行いましたが、生きたままのプランクトンを観察するのに、メカニカルステージはすごく便利でした。難点をあげるとすれば、・LEDライトではないので、ライトがすごく熱くなる→水分がすぐ乾いちゃう・LED調光でないので高倍率だと光量不足を感じる（これは絞りの扱いで解決する？？）私の場合は、その辺も承知の上で購入したので、特に問題はありませんでした。スマホで撮った顕微鏡写真を添付しました。

Amazing Microscope! Bought for homeschooling studies. My 10 year old hasn't stopped thinking of things to look at! The magnification is stunning, even down to seeing individual blood cells! So easy to use, the mechanical Stage is so handy to easily move the slide around. Very sturdy design & great quality for the price. Maybe only negative is the light is not an LED so it does heat up after extended use. If you already have a DSLR camera I highly recommend getting an adaptor to take pictures of the amazing things you will see & want to share with others! I found a "Gosky T T2 Mount Camera Lens Adapter for Canon EOS SLR / DSLR Camera and Microscope Adapter" for a great price here on amazon!

I'm a research scientist and know high quality microscopes in my lab and even for the classroom are pricey. This is a very economical microscope that is of excellent quality. My kids and I have had a blast looking at pond water (algae, paramecium, round worms), small ticks (Here we used it to see if the entire tick was removed...it was), molds (hyphae and spores), budding yeast, etc. My ten year-old is picking up a lot of info and my 4 year-old is also enjoying it...who knows how much he is picking up and who cares, he's engaged. I am making the slides, finding the items, and focusing, all that will come with time for the kids.I did not find it difficult to assemble, but I have some experience there. It seemed pretty intuitive to me. It came in about 4 parts that were preassembled (body, stage, eye piece unit, slide holder). The light is very bright/effective, even at 100x and it comes with one replacement bulb. There is a lever to control the light passing up through the lenses. Not sure why one would want to use the color filters...these remain in the styrofoam packaging. All four objectives are excellent and you can use either the 10x or 20x eyepieces, which are also clear.I got tired of waiting for the university sales where they sell their old microscopes. Getting a new 'scope is even better!You will need microscope slides and cover slips, but those are also easy to find on Amazon. It comes with immersion oil for the 100x objective. It does not come with lens paper or cleaning solution to remove the oil off the lens or for general maintenance of the lenses.

This microscope is better than it looks in pictures, it's made of metal and has a perfect size to be used even by a kid.It seems to last a lifetime but it is not a professional equipment. It lacks the possibility to change/upgrade lighting system, (fine focus wheel slightly shifs the image*), condenser lens is slightly mis-aligned. But being reasonable, such claims could only be asked from a real pro. The objectives are really nice: sharp clear, bright, no colour aberations. Considering the limitation of lighting system, x40 and x100 ones cannot show their real value.In the first half an hour after opening the packet I was able to look in a drop of water (on a concave slide) from my fish bowl and saw jungle there. My 11 year daughter have a thrill of horror after seeing a metazoa (cyclop?) who's eating a little something. She had got fascinated and that's what I actually watching from this purchase.I hope we will enjoy for many yeasa from now on the universe opened by this tool, but for the others who are looking for a microscope I would suggest another one for the same price: http://www.amazon.com/AmScope-Compound-Biological-Microscope-40x-1000x/dp/B007LBFLSM/ref=wl_it_dp_o_pC_nS_nC?ie=UTF8&colid=2MQAIRS1KO6GP&coliid=I1L6332N8CEHHOOther recommandation would be to negotiate a low magnification in favor of a better lighting system. Don't look after 1600x, 2000x or 2500x but look after rack and pinion adjustment for condenser, darkfield condenser, coaxial coarse & fine focusing etc. Peace!P.S. *After a couple of days of using I observed that the little shift of image caused by the fine focusing knob it's no more visible, maybe it needed a little running...

Item arrived on time, well packaged and in perfect condition.This microscope is well made and of metal construction. I have wanted a microscope for many years but the models I found in local hobby shops were either way too expensive or cheaply constructed of plastic. Thanks to Amazon, I was able to find and select this quality product. Upon receipt, I performed the simple assembly within 10 minutes and was viewing paramecium, amoeba, planaria and other creatures in a drop of water from my backyard pond in no time at all. After about a month of ownership, I purchased a Celestron digital USB imager for less than 50 bucks and I can now view and photograph excellent images as well as create videos of anything seen through this microscope using my PC. The microscope comes with both 10X and 20X eyepieces as well as color filters (which I would love to know how to use if anyone can advise me how to mount them) and a fantastic X / Y micrometer type clamping device which allows one to find an object, note its coordinates, move on and return to it easily rather than moving a slide with your fingers and possibly creating a mess. If you are looking for a well made hobby grade microscope for a very reasonable price, this is it. Do not be put off by the fact that this is not a well known name brand.

I have worked with microscopes in numerous college level classes and this Microscope rivals any I have used.Santa brought this for my 7 year old son this year. OK, I know a little odd for a 7 year old by my wife teaches Science and we are both lovers of it so Santa figured we would help him. A microbiologist may know the difference between this and a $2,000 microscope but I sure don't. I found nothing wobbly about it, solid construction, wonderful optics including a oil immersion lens. The instructions actually recommend you DON'T put it together yourself but having worked with microscopes over the years I was able to get it together in about 5 minutes (Be cautious not to introduce dust into the optics). If this is your first introduction to them I may recommend having someone assist you in putting it together and showing you the basics. From there it is not complicated at all, though you should buy yourself a good book on the field and a slide making kit.I love the mechanical stage which allows you to scan the field with ease. I can't wait to get some pond water and start yanking hairs out of my head.
