In contrast to an ordinary microscope, you see a direct image, small adjustment to the focus and everything is adjusted correctly. There is a manual, but it is really not necessary. Everything is self-explanatory.
The LED lamp is very good, I usually only use it on position 4.
You can move your sample with the tuning buttons
both forwards backwards sideways very easily.
The photos therefore look very good with 5 mpixels, which is more than sufficient.
However, you have to adjust well and look carefully before taking a photo, everything shows sharper on the LCD screen than in the photo, if you do not adjust correctly.
All in all I am very satisfied with this microscope, you can look at stones yourself with it. Or hardened metals, however, there is a second lamp that makes that possible.
I would recommend this to anyone starting out with their first microscope. You have everything for a very reasonable price.
The difference with this microscope is the ease that you have when using everything directly on the screen, everyone can watch, with other microscopes that is sometimes disappointing unless you buy one with a camera, but then you quickly lose the 3 double and probably better quality but I'll have to see that first.
