    Nice! The quality looks real good for $21 dollars right out of the box, I might need to get me one of those :)

    It is really good. I'm sure they can get a bit clearer if I took some more time to get it just right.

    1000X should be powerful enough to see fleas on a gnat. :hilarious:

    I put it on my jeans and it was cool to see the fibers up close :)
    I haven't messed with it too much beyond that and the coin pictures.

    Just bought one. I use a Canon DSLR with a Mamiya 120mm Macro for my full coin shots, but have never been able to get the finite details to image well. Your images look like they'll do the job, and at $21, I can justify the purchase.

    John Skelton Morgan man!

    So how do you handle it? Do you take the shots from the stand at an angle, or do you do a handheld shot?

    That camera sure takes some great quality pictures. Do you know if one that’s compatible with the IPhone and IPad?

    I used the stand and used the little arm to angle it the right way. Admittedly not ideal.

    I don’t. I think this one is just compatible with android and windows.

    Ive owned a scope sine they first became available on the market. Best investment ever made for this hobby. I will add paid a lot more money than twenty something like ten or better times that amount...but its been worth every cent.
