I would have given 5 stars. Very quick shipping, received Item as described. Would have been better if the scope came with eye guards. such a small detail but big enough inconvenience for such a high dollar item. Meh.

Ich bin begeistert. Für den Preis wirklich top. Viele Teile waren bereits zusammengebaut.Man bräuchte schon LED 144 Beleuchtung und evt. Eine 0,5 Barlow Linse.

So to start off I got sent the trinocular head instead of the simulfocal, I contacted amscope and they send me the right one (and I didn’t even have to send the other head back!). Amazing customer support. I love how easy it slides back and forth on its rails, fairly easy to roll it back and forth, seems very heavy and very solid, good quality. The one and only thing I’ve found not so good is when I put my eyes up to the lenses I’m unable to lean onto the lenses or even touch them with my eyebrows, I have to back off like half an inch in order to get the full lens into focus, for someone with glasses it’d probly be perfect, but for me I’d like to go all the way to the lenses and block out as much light from beside me as possible. Still totally worth buying! (The pictures I’ve posted are only taken through the eyepiece with my iPhone, since I don’t have a camera for the microscope yet…)

Come da titolo, paragonerò questo microscopio all optika slx 5 che uso tutti i giorni a scuola (corso di incastonatura) per non meno di 3 ore facendone altrettante in laboratorio (orafo incastonatore) con questo Amscope da ormai 2 mesi.CONSEGNAArrivato nei tempi previsti in un cartone anonimo senza alcun logo nè sullo scatolo che sul microscopio tranne uno sulla base del piedeSTRUTTURALa struttura si presenta solida e ben assemblate anche se i cuscinetti utilizzati non sono della migliore qualità, da controllare il serraggio dei grani che fermano le manopole dello zoom e della regolazione dell altezza per la messa a fuoco ma niente piu di cosi. Paragonato all optika si nota qualche differenza nella qualità dei materiali ma il difetto dei cuscinetti è praticamente uguale. Rapporto qualità/prezzo Amscope è superiore.CORPO OTTICOIl corpo ottico è ben assemblato, non fa rumori durante il cambio zoom, come l optika, ma il campo di messa a fuoco è migliore nell' Amscope poichè si ha una maggiore possibilità di movimento, 8-9mm senza perdere messa a fuoco mentre nell' optika con un movimento di circa 3-4 mm si perde completamente la messa a fuoco.QUALITÀ DI IMMAGINEDopo circa due mesi di utilizzo non sono riuscito a notare una differenza di qualità degna di nota, cosa che va a favore dell' Amscope che dimostra un rapporto qualità/prezzo migliore.CONCLUSIONISe dovessi prendere un altro microscopio di questa fascia non ci penserei due volte a comprarlo nuovamente, è arrivato in tempi brevi e ben imballato.

Rien à redire, très bon produit (emballage, précision...), très bon support fabricant dont celui d'Amazon hyper réactif. Seul minuscule bémol qui est l'exhaustivité de la gamme de produit du fabricant qui nécessite de bien se documenter pour choisir le produit correspondant à ses exigences.

It happened to me, as I saw it happened to some people else here in the reviews. No AmScope logo anyplace, not in the product, not in the manual, and not even in the boxes; and that is because is not an AmScope but a SZM7045-STL1 (SZMN Series). So wheter the offer is a scam, the stocking cataloger has done wrong, or the dispatcher is mixing things to his/her will.My thing is that even the quality is not bad and it is a trinoscope with a perfect base and supports, this is not what I paid for, and the one I got is somewhat $200 cheaper. The zoom mechanism has debris (like sand) inside and makes noise as it operates.

I had a hard time getting used to it but it only took a couple of hours to get it adjusted to where I could use it comfortably but once I got it man oh man! I found two blown components that I could not physically see with the naked eye! Even after I found it under the microscope! I am unable to share any pictures because I haven't got the money to purchase the camera yet. JUST BUY THIS THING! Very good quality in my personal opinion!

So, the two biggest complaints I have are:1. The packaging reveals only in one tiny spot, the "brand" of the unit, and it's AmScope. The brand is literally stamped on with an ink stamp! It is not reassuring.2. The instruction manual was not only for the wrong model scope, NO WHERE in the manual is AmScope mentioned! Also, the manual has typical foreign-to-English translation errors, misspellings and overall, a very unprofessional look.So, in the end I had to rely on the photos in the Amazon listing to assemble my kit. First, I tried without reading a manual and got two parts backwards or upside-down... It didn't take long to fix once I saw photos.I bought a knock-off 0.5 Barlow lens (I mean, the rest of the kit appears "knock-off", so what the heck, right?https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07LB11DK2/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o04_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1The magnification out of the box is much too powerful for SMD soldering work, so do yourself a huge favor and get a 0.5x reduction lens... this is not AmScope's fault, however.I also bought a ring light. Many users suggested an alternate version than the more expensive one that is offered as an option. This works very nicely, perfect for my needs. It will eventually scratch the paint on the outer ring.https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00UE1PF1Y/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o04_s01?ie=UTF8&psc=1My base has AmScope printed on it, so, I assume it's genuine? Obviously they can print "CanScope" for Canada, right? It's obvious this stuff is from China and the manufacturer rebrands it for the world. If they could put some more effort into making us feel like we bought the right product, this review would be perfect.Now, here are the good parts:1. The scope is durable. However, The only point of failure that I see is the rear height stem. You have simple set-screw mechanics and gravity to keep the boom at one level. Over time, I see divots being developed if you change the height often, or are using too much force (you don't need a lot). A gear mechanism, like on the focus racking unit, would have been a QUALITY improvement. I am going to inquire if I can order another rear stem as a backup. My OCD, LOL.2. Using the scope does reveal a level of accuracy and quality improvement over all the cheaper ones on the market, especially the ones with 720p LCD screens fixed on from the factory. There is zero-lag with your eyes, and you have ample room to work on the piece below.3. You can add a camera to this unit. It is a "Simul-Focal" model. If you don't plan to upgrade to a camera, then a "stereo" microscope is cheaper and works exactly the same, without built-in camera mount and reflection mirror. I definitely plan to add a camera at some point.4. The pan, tilt and position mechanisms are all smooth as butter.5. The scope is pretty solid and I find that if I tighten things a little, the optics barely move then I put my eyeglasses (I wear progressive bifocals, BTW) to the eye cups.6. I happened to get mine on some special deal, 15% off or something. That was another plus. Go to the AmScope store on Amazon, you may find deals.7. You get a dust cover with the unit... USE IT!Conclusion:If you are going to do circuit board surface-mount re-work... this scope can't be beat for the price. I found a split circuit trace with this unit that I never would have spotted with my "5x" lighted magnifier. Adding the tiniest wire to repair the board was also almost easy, with help from this unit! I am delighted to have precisely cut, affixed, fluxed and soldered the new trace wire, all while under the scope.Time will tell if this unit lives up to it's purchase price. I have a feeling it will last many years if I treat it right and cover it when not in use. I recommend this unit.

(I don't know what "sheerness" and "thickness" means but I gave 'em a 5 anyway.) OK This scope has been extremely useful for working on electronics as well as just looking at whatever up close. Even without the users manual I figured out how to set it up and use it just fine. It's changed that way I troubleshoot electronics, and also the way I solder SMD parts. If you are an electronics person and are working with SMD I highly recommend this scope.

This thing is a game changer when it comes to soldering. Don't forget to buy a barlow lens, even a 1x barlow to protect the lenses. The sliding boom stand could be a bit smoother; it's a little rough sliding it, but it doesn't bother me since I tend not to move it around much anyways.

I really like this microscope. Before, I'd struggle reworking a circuit board, having difficulty seeing in enough detail to perform the required work. Now it is easy.I installed the 0.5X Barlow lens to increase the working distance. This allows enough room to get soldering irons, or xacto blades into where you need them. With the 144 LED light attachment there is more than enough light to see the finest details, even at the highest magnification. The counter balanced boom is easy to use and allows some pretty impressive reach on one's work bench. When not in use, I just rotate the microscope out of the way.This is an enabling piece of hardware. Highly recommended.

Estaba buscando un estereomicroscopio simul-focal para poder grabar con la cámara mientras trabajo con los dos oculares simultáneamente, y encontre este a un precio razonable en Amazon, vendido en Europa, que no hay que andar con aduanas ni historias, y aquí lo tengo, muy buena compra, le he añadido una lente barlow de 0.5 de la misma Amscope para aumentar la distancia de trabajo que es muy conveniente si se hacen trabajos de soldadura smd. El soporte boom es fantástico para poder orientar el cabezal en cualquier dirección, y que no moleste en la mesa si vamos a hacer otras operaciones, o la placa está inclinada, eso sí muy pesado por el contrapeso de la base, no es para estar moviendolo de un sitio a otro. El microscopio llegó sin problemas a su tiempo y muy bien embalado.

The base is *very* substantial and the whole build is very sturdy. The range of focus and zoom is good, and the image is clear and crisp. The LED light ring is essential. I would have liked a small cover just for the optics rather than the whole scope. It really needs a guide to putting the parts together (pictures on Amazon were a very good start!)
