Carson MicroFlip 100x-250x LED Lighted Pocket Microscope with Flip Down Slide Base, Smartphone Adapter Clip, and UV Flashlight

An excellent quality product with remarkable optics...Our Engineers tested it after receipt, and found that the image quality is commendable.It takes one a bit of practice to axially align the mobile camera with the optical axis of the microscope, but once the trick is mastered, it is an amazing optical equipment.Another notable feature is that the battery needed is a commonplace AA battery, which in many other brands is something of a special type, which is not easily obtainable.Here are sample images of a 25np coin size Pigeon feather, and a Moharee grain both on 100X and 250X magnification.Highly recommended.-- RAVISHANKAR.M D [ Technology ]Controlled Concrete Consultants.

Product works as per its specifications, nice and handy. But I realised only after using that magnification of 250x is not enough at all, it doesn't reveal the cellular structure. The LED light makes the objects shiny and rainbow colour . If you off the LED can see anything at all.

Wonderful gadget, microscopes make good gifts as well. Impressed with quality. One of the best thing I bought from Amazon.

Quality of the resolution of the camera is bad. Can't adjust the resolution of the lens.Waste product.

The media could not be loaded. Super productLoving every bit of itBattery operatedHas 2 modes of lightOne regular modeOne Uv modeGood for close viewingBut for phone it’s tricky u need to align the lense properlyGood for viewing currency notes as well

I bought is for my 4 year old kid as she wanted to know how germs and cells look like and this product has not disappointed me at all. Although small in size it does the job very well. The clarity of focus is great and the mobile clip is an added advantage. You can further enhance the zoom with your mobile phone camera. Although it just comes with one base slide and I am still trying to figure out the use of UV light in it you can clearly see stands cells blood cells and onion peel cells.

So first thing it arrives used and broken with a battery already inside it also the magnification is alright but nothing too crazy the magnification doesn't allow to see most microorganisms also they don't reveal cellular structure or detailed image also I am not a fan of the slide base one thing good was the ease of assembly you didn't need to assemble anything also the image quality is not good not value for money the size is great because it is portable the functionality is also meh overall I don't recommend for detailed study of microorganisms if you want to see a glimpse of the microscopic world then this will let you I recommend saving for a proper compund microscope also if you budget is not great then this is for you

I'm really happy with the product. I love playing around with it now. I'm not a student or anything but it's just pure fun. I've attached the photos of head of a mosquito in 100 and 250x. The lower focus dial needs to adjusted properly to see objects. Only assisting the upper dial for 100 to 250x range is not enough. I do agree that it's difficult it photograph stuff even with the clip. The weight of the mobile needs to handled properly. Without mobile it's clear and wonderful although don't look at it for long as it hurts the eye due to the bright light.
