This microscope is amazing, we originally bought it to look at rocks, and WoW, the things we saw on the rocks that we could not detect with the naked eye was amazing…Now we’re using it to look at jewelry, and I intend to use it for watch n jewelry repair as well…The only advice I have is Don’t be discouraged at 1st, because it takes a little bit of practice to properly adjust the height and to dial in the clarity, the dial for the clarity is very sensitive, but once you get the hang of it you can get different views of the same item…We are very pleased with it, and the ability to hook it to your computer, the removal AD card, and the ease of taking a picture is really easy to use and adds a great deal of value to the product…The only thing I’m not over the top about are the adjustable lights, while the lights are bright and extremely important when using the item, I think they could have either been made taller or were much more flexible, but it’s rather minor overall…We’ve found this to be a very useful item to have around, unfortunately I’m now spending way to much time looking at different things under it
