I do a lot of electronics work at home, I'm getting older, the parts are getting smaller and my eyes aren't getting any better. I have a large stereo microscope that I use, but it's a bit limited and takes up a lot of space. It can get uncomfortable for long distances because I have to stay in exactly the same position while I work. A little while ago my wife gave me a small USB microscope. It was great for taking photos though. I was hoping that this microscope could replace my other two solutions and it turned out to be pretty good. It's easy to work on my projects and it can take VERY good pictures too. For what this costs, it should be expected to perform well.

I also really like that the lens can be used at a very adjustable height. It can be raised quite high to get it out of reach of my tools and still focus perfectly, at the expense of slightly lower optical magnification. With my old microscope I had a very narrow focus range, so the flexibility wasn't that great. This one is great.

The interchangeable lenses are also very nice. I really didn't expect to get such high magnification that is possible with this setup. The kit comes with a light box and some slides and I was very pleased with how well this was able to bring out the microscopic details. It was way better than I thought.

The large screen is very sharp and clear. The image is high resolution and has a nice, wide viewing angle. It has buttons for digital zoom and for taking pictures to the included 32GB SD card. The picture quality is also excellent.

The gooseneck lights are also very nice and offer a lot of lighting and flexibility to put the light where you need it.

I see another reviewer mention "dead spots" in the focus knob, but that's not really the case. The internal lens in the microscope has a small auto focus. So if the image is badly out of focus and you try to adjust it, the internal autofocus will also try to focus, making it seem like turning the knob has no effect at times. There are no blind spots and you can quickly focus the image clearly. The internal autofocus makes it a little easier to get perfect focus, so the knob isn't as jittery. It's a very nice focus system once you understand what's happening.

Overall I am very satisfied with this digital microscope, even more than I expected. This is the perfect solution for my home electronics lab and takes up a lot less space than my old setup. A solid 5 star microscope in my opinion.
