Personally, I found when looking for little things, a 30x loupe worked a million times better and faster than a digital scope. Then I just needed to take a picture of the area. Now you may still want something for easy pictures and verification of RPMs, but for everything else if you don&#039;t see it with a 30x loupe, does it really exist? <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie2" alt=";)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />&nbsp; Which is why I now only use a 5x loupe.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
