This is a perfect microscope with a digital imager, or camera, for students to learn science. There are five magnification settings, 40X, 100X, 250X, 400X and 1000X. It comes with full optical glass elements, metal framework, 360° rotatable monocular head, an LED illumination system and a 640x480 pixel detachable digital imager. The LED illumination system uses either an outlet (adapter included) or three AA batteries (or re-chargeable batteries). The digital camera captures still images and video, and allows you to view a live stream on your PC. The downloadable software for Windows offers image-development and measurement tools, as well as advanced compositing features such as image-stitching and extended-depth-of-focus. Independent preview and capture resolutions allow you to view high-speed video while capturing high-definition images. On Mac computers, a lite version of the software is available with a more limited range of tools. It is an ideal microscope for home school or for students in elementary to high school. It is also an excellent instrument for hobbyists.
