This is a perfect microscope for students to learn science. It comes with full optical glass elements, metal framework, a 360 degree rotatable monocular head, coarse and fine focusing, with an LED illumination system that uses either an outlet (adapter included) or three AA batteries (or re-chargeable batteries). It offers five magnification settings, 40X, 100X, 250X, 400X, and 1000X. The digital camera captures still images and video, and allows you to view a live stream on your PC. The included 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, the camera can be used as a driverless imaging device, compatible with various applications, such as ProScope and Photo Booth. This is an ideal microscope for academics in home school and from students in elementary to high school. A microscope of this caliber is an excellent instrument for hobbyists. This package includes a collection of materials for creating your own specimen slides, including blank slides and cover slips, a microtome for sectioning specimens, stains, an assortment of tools, and the book "The World of the Microscope.
