When you scope comes with a 10x wide field lenses, you might naturally expect the manufacturer’s specified 5x wide field lenses to let you see double the field of view of your work area with things appearing 1/2 the size as seen in the 10x lens set.Well that isn’t what you get. What you get is indeed everything is 1/2 the size. But you get zero additional field of view of the work surface. Why would AmScope make such a lens? Who asks for “let me see just as much but from farther away”?See image. It’s photos taken with my phone camera through the 10x and 5x of the same work piece.Nuts.

The eye lens is fine and work as intended . But the sales description is misleading . It says buy a pair of of eye pieces and show 2 pieces . So unless the word PAIR is another word that has been change to mean something else . It imply you are buying 2 eye pieces . But Amazon said I am wrong. Just be careful and read everything.

Fit in a cheap AmScope dissecting scope I also got here on the Zon. I wish they had an even lower 2x mag though as this 5x is still a little too much for what I need the scope for.

The ones I received did not look like the ones pictured in this link:They were marked as WF5X and certainly made things in the image half of the size of the images viewed with the 10X eyepieces I received with the microscope. However, they looked like the product in this link:The box says EP5x305 on it, though, claiming to be 30.5 mm vs 30 mm. By the markings, you'd think it was the right product.The visible field actually reduced to less than half of what the 10X eyepieces produce, as others have reported. It is like looking through a toilet paper tube. I purchased them to see MORE of what I was looking at in the microscope. I'm not sure what happened, but I feel pretty burned. It was over a year ago that I bought them, but life got busy and I didn't start using them until now. Maybe the problem has been fixed since then.

Like others have posted here, these are NOT wide field, and there is NO reason to buy these if you already have the 10x WF (which truly is wide field).I wanted these to see a larger extent, but instead you get the same view of the 10x WF but zoomed out like you looking thru a keyhole!Dont buy these!!!Chris from AmScope in one of the comment replies suggests getting a barlow lens instead, I'm going to return these and try that, will update this reviewUpdate: Chris left AmScope, and the people that work there will NOT take back these eyepieces, even though the "Wide Field" description is borderline fraudulent. Just keep that in mind when you risk buying a product from AmScope.

For me they've not been that good, the optics lens glasses are to small at both end, to go from 10X to 5X I was expecting to have a larger field of view for small boards surface mount soldering they are 30.5 mm fits my SE-400 AmScope perfectly, they were probably made for a microscope more than a stéréoscope ! Actually my 10 X on the right give me a larger field of view than these 5X and are much more brighter ! should be the contrary !

Did the exact job I was hoping it would do. These are the right eyepieces to use if you have to assemble something (in my case, a circuitboard full of SMT components) under the stereo microscope.

The .5 lenses allow you to see a larger area when using the microscope for surface mount soldering. The 10x just zoomed in too close for solder work. the 10x and 20x are great for inspection but just too close for what I needed. The Scope I purchased was a AmScope SE400-Z which came with 10x and 20x lenses.My main use is for soldering small parts.The .5 lenses I ordered are of very good quality and well worth the money.
