Product Description

The XCL-20X compound microscope gives you an opportunity to see tiny details on specimen slides designed for clinicians, high school and university science students, and enthusiastic hobbyists.
Diedentopf professionals heads have interchangeable wide-field 10X and 25X glass eyepieces, fixed at an ergonomic 30 degree tilt to reduce neck strain and for easy adjustment to different interpupillary distances without losing focus, the head rotates fully for easy viewing by multiple users.
The machine offers six magnification options 40X, 100X, 250X, 400X, 1000X, and 2500X. It is housed in a turret with 4 DIN Achromatic objectives.
A sophisticated system of micro-adjustment allows for very fine adjustment and very coarse
Using the trinocular head, a special eyepiece and microscope camera attachment (not included) can be used to view, livestream, record, and capture magnified images of specimens.

Questions & Answers

For viewing images, is it necessary for me to purchase a camera? Would it be possible for me to view them using a ?

Thanks for asking, Natalie. Please accept my sincere thanks. There's nothing wrong with either, but the smart phone adapter can only fulfill your needs for taking photos, whereas the camera provides richer functions such as measuring accurately, adjusting the image, etc., in addition to the relatively high and stable quality of the images. Any other ways we can assist you, please do not hesitate to contact us. I wish you all the best, Annie

What is the purpose of this microscope? It is used to examine samples of pigsemen. Neubauer chambers Can they be used to count sperm?

How do you choose the right microscope and camera for a coin collector?

Thanks for asking, Mike. I appreciate your question. A compound microscope like this one can deliver detailed analysis of cells A stereo microscope is ideal for magnifying solid objects like coins that are prepared and mounted on a slide. For level views of transparent or dyed specimens, prepare a slide. A link to a site that might be of use, The Amazon website. I appreciate you ordering the book at dp/B07G92FG7L.

The product performs well and offers exceptional value
5/5

It is just the right amount of light from a LED source. A precise focus makes a difference. In the same way as a Labrador An instrument of the highest grade. It is my pleasure to announce that I am retired from the largest university Biological Sciences department in the United States. To get 20% better performance, you would have to spend 10 times as much money as you do now. The scope can be purchased here.

The scope I used for my study is ideal for me as a pathologist! It is a pleasant surprise to find that the quality and wholesomeness of this microscope is outstanding
5/5

There are no visible artifacts in the images. It was a nice surprise to receive In contrast to my lab microscopes, it is fun and unpretentious. In conjunction with the iPhone adapter, I used a Gosky iPhone adapter, the kind with the protruding tube so it could be inserted in the eyepiece tube or between the trinocular head and eyepiece. The following is a helpful I think it's most important to start with that. Install the Gosky adapter and iPhone on the iPhone already The light field of the image is coupled with the eyepiece when it is on the eyepiece position, so the image can be controlled and correlated. It is very easy to capture a circular image that is sharp and uniformly lit, without vignettes, with some tweaking. If you are using a binocular microscope, then you can take photographs from the eyepieces (as if you had a binocular scope) or even better, take pictures on the trinocular tube which is troublefree and already centered. There's nothing better than having both worlds at once By registering images at the same time, both your eyes and your camera will be satisfied without you giving up observation in order to satisfy In the future, you should be able to diagnose your disease as well as if you were using a $5K microscope at a hospital or Here are pictures from my inaugural session, taken on my first day fungus under a nail plate (medium power) and a plantar wart growing on the heel Having a question? The Aldogs, thanks!.

My favorite thing about this microscope is its focus
5/5

In school and at work, I've used a lot of microscopes, and I can confidently say the SW380T is a terrific pick for the price, especially for the level of focus you get. It's interesting to note that many microscopes don't have a fine adjustment knob that moves independently from the coarse adjustment knob, meaning that when the fine adjustment knob is used, the stage will still shift a little bit. If you're a hobbyist or want to teach high school laboratory, you won't have much of a problem, but individuals who have to work at a professional lab and need a high degree of sharpness and precision will need something (I usually don't take images of my microscopy) I was a little on the fence about the camera port, but my spouse really likes The best is on the way for our kids.

I've got a son who loves this game
5/5

It's a no-brainer A new hobby has been found for my son and it's really easy to use. There was a nematode in the sample.

I paid for everything I received What I wanted was exactly what I got
5/5

The pros are The view through each objective lens is crisp and clear

Cons *No darkfield feature (I personally do not need it)*no case, cap, fuse, or filter (painful, but no big deal)*no way to clean up after me if I'm exhausted from all the tiny things I look at all day )

Highly recommend this beast of a scope to anyone interested in microscopy.

The purchase I made has been a great success for me
5/5

wanted to share my love of science with my son, so I was in search of a microscope. I'm a photographer, so I knew the value of good glass, so I decided it would be better to buy him something he can enjoy as an adult and something I could also enjoy using in the meantime instead of a cheap toy microscope that would frustrate us both. It's easy to tell right away that the unit is built to last, as all the parts are sturdy and the focusing is very Although we have not tested out the camera port yet, we have been using the package's eyepieces, so I'm excited to get my hands on a camera attachment soon!.

Great microscope
5/5

I really like it. For my 8 year old granddaughter who is home schooling, I bought this microscope. My career spent much of it sitting in front of a microscope, so I know the difference between a good microscope and a bad I am pleased with how it turned out. I did not find any design flaws with it and I like that it has quite good optical resolution. This is much better than I thought it would be. The 100x oil objective hasn't yet been used, so I cannot speak to its quality, but the other three are of excellent quality, and the 10x and 25x objectives are both pretty good too. As part of the show, the stage moves smoothly, and the lighting is good enough for effective I use the trinocular to view the slides into the camera, but we can also discuss them together using the trinocular. The joy of seeing the hidden details of her world is truly coming to my granddaughter as she enjoys this. The mission was to buy her a microscope that would last her for several years in college, and I believe that we have achieved that goal. That is definitely a book I would recommend! A single negative (which is incredibly minor) is that the thin little plastic case is totally inadequate, and too small to fulfill its function. For less than $20, we arrived at a KitchenAid mixing bowl cover that fits well and provides good protection to keep it from becoming dusty and dirty.

The objective is flawed and there is no support for it
3/5

Swiftoptical's custom support email address is customsupport@swiftoptical. com. Get in touch with us regarding an oil immersion objective lens with an integrated 100x power. My response has yet to come 11 days after I sent it. In the event that I do not hear back, I will return the letter. Below is a video of a blank slide being viewed under a 100x oil immersion objective with a sample of immersion oil included.
