<p>[QUOTE=&quot;desertgem, post: 3031604, member: 15199&quot;]Gonza, I am sure you are not a microscope specialist. I have taught college microbiology many years, and have used every type of microscope up to a</p><p>TEM and SEM.&nbsp; The companies that sell these USB type of scope &quot;grossly exaggerate their capabilities. Looking at the specs&nbsp; and the small print.</p><p>The image sensor is only 0.3mp sensor, but the small print says it is interpolated to 2.0 mp, so this means for every 1 actual true point of image, the software adds about 6 more &quot;made up, average point of image.&nbsp; It is the false imaging that makes the pixellated blocks on the photo. Most modern cameras are near 16-24 mp. Also they do not know the meaning of the word &quot;resolution&quot;. Resolution refers to how close 2 things can be , and still seen as 2 separate individual points. They use it to refer to how big the image will be. They say their photo resolution is 2560x 1920, so now they have upped their idea to about&nbsp; 5mp. So the photo image is 5mp by their calculations, but the sensor can only see .3mp, so for every true pixwl detected, their software adds 14 fake ones. That is why people can see things that do not exist when photos are taken with a old fashion glass lens camera or microscope.&nbsp; It is not just just company, almost all do the &quot;interpolation&quot; trick.</p><p><br /></p><p>Nothing personal intended.
