Questions & Answers

From one of the pictures, it appears to be connected to a computer, so I assume a USB cable needs to be used. This is a valid assumption, is it not? How long is the cable and what does it include?

The following items were purchased in As a result of the product description for this product, I assumed it had a built-in camera and computer. The information seems to be very misleading to me. There is only one extra eyepiece included, and an AC adapter as well. The package does not contain any cables or slides.

Will my son be able to see things like grass, hair, or a penny under it if he puts those things under it? There may be a top light on some microscopes for viewing things like this?

The answer is yes. In order to see general movement, you need 100x, and in order to see individual sperm, you need 400x. The only disadvantage is that you won't be able to see much detail such as morphology, which requires

A missing part was sent as part of an incomplete item, and I was directed to look online for the missing part
3/5

It was a birthday gift for my son, who is 13 years old. In his mind, Science is super cool this year and he is at an age where he is too old for child toys, but too young for adult ones. Unfortunately, that's as far as the fun goes As you unpacked this, you found that only the microscope was inside. There are no power cables or other accessories that are shown in the photo of the product listing. My questions regarding the parts required to make it work were directed to Amazon. To see if AmScope could help, it was suggested that I contact them. As I bought it on Amazon, AmScope told me to contact them again since it was purchased there. Then I called Amazon again and was asked if I would look online to see if I could find That's right, you read it correctly. As a result of my inquiry, Amazon asked me to check online to see if I could place an order for the missing parts. I have no idea what you mean. As much as I would like to, I can only rate this zero. It was disappointing to find that neither company provided good customer service.

A great way to start your day
5/5

These have been given to various grandchildren between the ages of 7 and 11 There is a great deal of love between them all. With the textbook, I mix the slides from Greg's Microscope, The World in a Drop of Water, and AmScope The World of the Microscope A Practical Introduction with Projects and Activities. My granddaughter, who is very interested in microscopes, recently received Rs' Science Microscope Slide Accessory Kit when she was in the middle of her research. It helps to have some context to the microscope rather than just giving an object without explanation. The input required to get started is different from that for a video game. When I was a kid, my mother gave me a microscope with a tiny mirror. I quickly lost interest because I couldn't come up with anything besides looking at salt and hair.

It was great to see through the microscope! Since this is my first time using a microscope, I don't have much experience using them however, they are working very well for my college biology course
5/5

Other customers have mentioned that there are some fine materials on the lenses, but what I'm experiencing with my experiments is not affected. Below are some pictures I took for a lab today.
All photos are taken using the 10x eyepiece. I am still learning to take good pictures, and that is not the microscope's fault. Images 1 and 2 shows the same fruit fly taken with the 40x objective lens* and pictures 3 and 4 show cheek cells stained with an IKI indicator taken with the same 40x objective lens* and picture 4 shows a root tip of an onion taken with the 10x objective lens.

This is an excellent product for farming
5/5

The test kit was purchased to make sure that my animals don't have worm eggs in their feces, to check the quality of wool fiber, and to identify bacteria and fungus in culture samples. Despite being all metal, it is very solid, has a bright light and a smooth focus adjustment. Its optics are sharp as well. This is a much better design than the slightly cheaper My First Lab Duo package - I choose it over that because of the quality. Scope that features a second light source at the top to act This scope includes a 25x eyepiece, which allows for higher magnification despite the high rating given to that one.

Having been able to do my own fecal samples myself on my goats is a great benefit to owning this microscope
5/5

It is awesome that you have a microscope like this! Our goats have been raised on this and we will be doing our own fecal screenings! This microscope allowed me to see a wide range of objects and I was amazed by what I saw. It was very clear to me that we were dealing with worms and we could identify exactly what type of worms we were dealing with. It means a lot to me, thank you.

I didn't think it was worth it
3/5

These photos are from right out of the box as it arrived on time. A lot of damage has been done to the structure. It could not be attached to the body because the little thing that holds three lenses was missing. This is a rough object with sharp edges. There was no way to open the instructional CD. This thing must now be repacked and sent back to me. There were black specks in the packing box that looked like paint chips. This does not satisfy me.

This microscope is awesome! A GREAT price for its functionality and what it can do! You should buy it if you want to get the best value
5/5

The package was very well packed and I received it in a timely manner. There are exchangeable eyepieces that give you an option of 10x and 25x so it can go Also, it doesn't explicitly state this but, as it turns out, there is an adjustment involved. It can be seen in the picture as the blue part. There is a zoom capability that is awesome and I could see my blood cells moving around on the slide. You can plug it in or use it anywhere, and it comes with batteries as well as a cord so you'll always have it at your disposal. This product is packaged in a protective " bag" style container for safe There is no better product out there for anyone, especially a high school student, because this one has the same quality as the ones we use in class AND it costs 80 I like this microscope a lot.
