Ürün beklediğimden iyi. 5 yaşındaki kızım için aldım. Kendi başına netleşecek zorlanıyor fakat ayarlayıp verince gördüğü bir çok şey merakını uyandırıyor. Gözünü tam konuma dayayıp bakmak henüz ona zor gelse de bakabiliyor. Yaprakları, kaktüs dikenlerini, kağıt parçalarını, iplik ve kumaşları, tuz ve şeker kristallerini, minik böcekleri inceledik. Optik olarak kalitesi fiyatına göre harika. Fiziksel kalitesi de çok iyi. 60 120x büyütme de gayet güzel. Tavsiye ederim.

Bought one for my son, and I’m kind of obsessed with it. Sooooo fun. Then bought one for my nephew but the depth of field is smaller than the one we have, so it’s very tricky to keep anything in focus.

It works well, if you know how to use a camera, you can get a good picture of the stuff you're looking at. Has a little keychain thingy on it so it's pretty dang nifty to bring around. I advise you to buy some AA batteries beforehand.

I got these as stocking stuffers for my youngest daughters, and was shocked at how well they work for their price!They really do a great job, and everyone, even our teens, enjoys using these microscopes to look at things!I have added pictures of the edge of a strawberry leaf, a cracked brown eggshell, and salt as seen through the microscope.

When I first saw the microscope out of the box I was a little skeptical to be honest. But I also got the sample slides and was quickly amazed by how nice and clear the images are. I've added a couple for anyone to review. I also got the phone clip and it works good. I've even been able to gather things from outside and look at them under a microscope and didn't have any issue with it being blurry. I would suggest that if you are using it, maybe watch some YouTube videos or remember some of the biology class lessons. I like to place anything I'm looking at on a white plate. That way the light on the microscope can clearly highlight what I'm trying to see and have not had any issues with it yet. Using the phone clip makes it a lot easier to share with my little one so that you don't have to worry about the microscope moving around as much

I really love this little tool. It focuses well, has a nice & bright led light that seems to never die.It feels like a high quality tool in your hands and the controls are intuitive. I believe it is fairly priced and im glad i purchased it.

Got it at 12 bucks. Very simple to use and it works. You can use your phone to amplify the view finder.

This mini microscope is a really cool item and is useful for a lot of different applications where seeing the make up of of an item or substance is important. the LED provide adequate lighting and the unit is compact enough that is can be put into a bag or backpack with not real increase in weight. The view is clear as long as the lenses are kept clean at both ends but may be an issue for those of us who wear glasses, as I do, but I make it work. The controls are, however a little loose and sloppy and I can see that over time and significant use they would simply become worse. The focus knob isn't nearly as sturdy as it should be and letting go of it with your fingers can set it off from where you had initially set it up, so a more precise focus is needed with closer tolerances to that the knob isn't loose or "sloppy" is needed. Also the magnification is somewhat similar to the focus knob, it does it's job, but will get looser over time and needs closer tolerances in it's manufacturing to make it reliable and stays where it is told without the act of letting go of it causing it to move slightly. Other than that it is a great tool and I do recommend it for field use just making you aware that it is what it is and that it will never be a replacement for a true microscope. But if you are looking to have a field microscope in your pocket this is a great way to get it, I do recommend a carrying case for it so that dirt and dust do not get inside of it making the adjusting knobs wear out prematurely, and to prevent being packed with other objects from causing additional sloppiness in the focus and magnification adjusters! I do wish I had bought the microscope with the slide viewing slot in it as this would have expanded it's capabilities for me but might not be necessary for everyone.

This is a review for the MicroBrite Plus 60x-120x (MM-300) from Carson Optical.The MicroBrite MM-300 is just the ticket for gardening and exploring. It's lightweight but substantial and has a nice, solid feel.Like all of the more powerful small scopes, you need to tinker with it a bit to get the best magnification, and at the highest magnification you will also benefit by being still. I've used more expensive scopes and several natural light scopes over the years, and this LED light scope puts them to shame. The results are excellent from full sunlight to dark.The grip is quite ergonomic for such a small device. You can use the focusing ring with the same hand you're holding it with, and you'll need to use your non-dominant hand to adjust the zooming dial when needed. The LED switch is perfectly located for a quick press of the thumb.This handheld is also perfect for those of us who choose to avoid button batteries. I wanted an AA battery device because our local stores are often out of the button battery I need. The battery compartment opens easily and the single battery can be accessed in a snap. (AA battery not included).There is an indent on the top to weave in a lanyard thread.It's portable but not really pocket-sized unless you stow it in a cargo-type pocket. It's about the size of a deck of cards and twice as thick. I keep it in my gardening apron pocket, in my birding vest pocket, or around my neck with a lanyard. When it's on the lanyard I use it more often just because it's there. It's useful and fun.Whether you're looking at a praying mantis casing, diagnosing spider mites, checking herb for readiness, or exploring the micro world with kids, this is an excellent portable microscope for the money.If this review was helpful to you in any way, I would appreciate it if you'd please check "yes" below. Thanks!
