The media could not be loaded. I will start with the obvious ....this is not a professional microscope..however, it doesn't pretend to be and putting aside the fact that you have to change the 3 lenses depending on what you are trying to use it for.I think this is really cool, the fact that you can use it for small to micro work to computer boards etc and then with the switch of a lens and a few other quick items it turns into a decent microscope if you feel like diving into the microscopic world.The video you see is of a little bit of a tree and a strand of hair just so you can see how it works.Honestly even though at times can feel slightly overwhelming in terms of setting up, it is actually not too bad as all items fit together logically and the manual that it comes with is quite explicit in English.As you can see the image can be adjusted manually and also you can use the optic digital zoom as well.All in all, this is in my opinion is a good item with versatile use and can be a good bit of fun as well.

I have always been fascinated by things you can’t see with the naked eye so when the chance to try out the Andonstar AD249S-M microscope was presented I knew it was time to trade up my old microscope for a newer model.The build quality of the Andonstar AD249S-M microscope is really good and is a lot sturdier than I was expecting. Being a technical piece of equipment I was expecting it to feel a little fragile in places, but this is not the case. This microscope feels tough, durable and well up to the task.Once I had identified how everything works, which took a bit of time, using the microscope soon became intuitive and simple to use, and the included remote makes changing the settings, accessing the features etc. quick and painless. There was a pretty steep learning curve in the first instance.All three (60X – 240X, 18X – 720X and 1,800X – 2,040X) lenses are top quality. They are not only tough, durable and well-made but also provide high levels of sharpness and clarity making it easy to see the tiniest details of the subjects.The 10.1” LCD screen is a decent size, good quality, and the FHD 1080 x 1920 resolution ensures all subjects can be seen in full detail. Not having to be tethered to an external monitor or computer is a bonus and allows me to take this microscope wherever I want.The LED lights provide loads of light to ensure all subjects are properly lit for viewing, and being adjustable ensures that there’s not too much light, which is often worse than not having enough light on the subjects.The endoscope function is something I didn’t think I would have much use for however the more I use this microscope the more I use the endoscope, and the more I am looking for subjects that require the endoscope function.Overall the Andonstar AD249S-M microscope is an excellent bit of kit that is not only versatile but jammed full of top end features. The lenses are clear and sharp and the image quality is simply superb. It is on the pricey side but it is top value for money and a great microscope for those with an interest in microscopy.Disclaimer: I am privileged enough to be part of the Amazon Vine program and as such I have the opportunity request products that I would find useful/potentially buy to road test in exchange for an honest review.
