Questions & Answers

Please comment on the camera's resolution 1 if you have any. How many megapixels are there?

As I set it up, we did some slides with pond water and the camera worked great. I purchased this for my granddaughter. that I understand what a water flee looks like, I can spot one easily are found in one

Someone else had something lost inside the head of Gemel? There is no difference between the replacement and the original. ?

It is the perfect microscope for my needs

This one would seem to work with an Atom, wouldn't it? In how many microns or nanometers does it go? There is no information on the specs about that! ?

I'm sure it won't work! You can see atoms with an electron microscope, which is a very powerful device that has many applications This equipment costs a million dollars and needs to be operated by a professional.

Selected User Reviews For AmScope B490B-M Compound Binocular Microscope 40X-2000X + 1.3 MP Camera

it's been a 5 out of 5! This microscope has just been delivered to me
5/5

Most of the time I will use it for fun. The scope is probably far more expensive than I actually need, but on the other hand, I'd rather spend a bit more to get a better scope than be sorry I got a cheaper one. A camera was also wanted to enhance my enjoyment, since I was involved in photography during my working years and now as a Here is how it looks once it's been taken In spite of the lack of documentation, I was easily able to put the microscope together without any problems I am a senior woman, not a rocket scientist. I did find documentation and a CD for the photo software in the cardboard box later on. There are very few instructions in the documentation! If I want to figure out how to use the oil on the 100x, I will have to watch some YouTube videos. The only other minor complaint I have is the absence of slides It will take a couple days for them to arrive, so I ordered them before I left. For now, I used a small picture frame glass to test out the scope. It would have been nice to have had a couple to try out first. The first time around, I was a bit confused by all the dials. However, after a little experimenting, I was able to use it To view more, I will have to wait for the slides and covers to arrive, but so far I've looked at a leaf, onion skin, hair, and a few grains of sand. Very intriguing! The camera was next on my list. My first impression is that the camera is solidly built. I tried out the included software program first, and it appeared to be The photos are clear and fair in size 1280x1024). File size 75 MB. I think the color is overpowering There are adjustments in a saturation that is saturated. ToupView is a software that I will experiment more with just to see how it works. Although, I prefer Adobe Photoshop to capture the image. My experimentation with the slides will be extended when I get them and I will take some pictures later. I am very happy with my purchase at this point. It will keep me occupied for a long time.

This is a 10 out of 10! Since I was a teenager, I have been working in the Clinical Laboratory Sciences
5/5

Since I work in a variety of hospital laboratories and read microscope slides for a living, I've read hundreds of slides. As a matter of fact, this scope is much better than ones I have used in hospital labs. Crisp optics and a nice, sturdy scope make it a nice choice. There is a lot of value in this scope. With it, you will find many filters and the camera that you need. The hygienist at my dentist recommended it to the beekeeper at her office, who needs one for her As a child, I requested a microscope for Christmas from my parents when I was about 8 years old. As I buy one for myself every year, I got one this year as well. It is something that I've been wanting, but thought most of them would be over A used book would be unsanitary to look through for the grandkids, so I didn't want to buy one. The prepared slides have been ordered and they should arrive in a few days As soon as they arrive, I'll tell you how I like them.

I find this to be I find this to be Having worked in veterinary medicine for 15 years, I cannot describe how happy I am with this product
5/5

It is high quality, reliable, clear, strong and At the time when I was deciding what microscope I would buy, I expected to see reviews from professionals and people with some experience using here's mine. As a veterinarian I have used it for hematology, parasitology, microbiology, etc. And with no doubt I dare say it is as good as the expensive ones we used in Buying it is therefore not a problem!.

This microscope is ideal for scientists of all levels! To present to my 16-year-old daughter as a birthday present, I purchased this microscope
5/5

His need for microscopes has always outgrown their capabilities despite the many microscopes he has received. He needs a heavy-duty bag to take him through college, but I cannot afford to spend several hundred dollars on it. I found this model during my research of several models, and it had many of the same features as Celestron and other expensive brands without the cost. It arrived securely packaged within the promised time period. This paper really did fulfill our son's objectives. While I was amazed by the quality, he was delighted. My recommendation to budding scientists is to buy this microscope.

I am satisfied with how this has turned out so For Christmas, I was given this microscope
5/5

Despite its good packaging, it arrived in good shape. It is enclosed in styrofoam and has been double boxed. My house would not be broken by this bad boy on its way to me. A very easy set up process was followed An instruction manual is not really necessary. To assemble the binoculars, simply screw the head and the objectives on the binoculars. Also included is oil to "grease" parts with so all the parts can remain in good working condition. I like it very much and give it a thumbs up. It comes with a spare fuse should the one installed blow out after prolonged The objectives came in individually packaged cases which were securely sealed. This microscope also comes with a cover to keep it safe when it is not being used. A flea slide was used as a test object for the scope. In addition to the parts working smoothly, I am extremely satisfied with the quality of this product. My family even had a great time seeing the flea's intestines moving (despite previous claims that looking at a flea's beating heart was A reasonable price, good quality, and good The price is too good to be true! (Be sure to have a lens cleaning cloth when you do this There is no user's guide included with this product and you will need to purchase one!.

The scope of the project is excellent for the price
5/5

The scope of this project couldn't be better. There is a lot this scope can do, from its features and quality to its build. The scope is highly recommended. Nonetheless, I had to try three different times before I finally got a brand new product. The first two scopes had a loose piece inside the Gemel head, indicating they were clearly It's probably only fair that Amazon's easy (I might even go so far as to call it frivolous) return policy allows people to buy expensive equipment, use it, and then return it for a full refund, while new customers are dealt a harsh blow. Even if Amazon incurs losses during the back-and-forth shipping process, I am not even talking about them.
