<p>[QUOTE="desertgem, post: 2998748, member: 15199"]Dollar for Dollar, these are the best scope for examining for very fine detail ( IMO). they will last for a long time ( mine are close to 40 yrs old). If stored in human type conditions for temp, etc. they do not grease up or the gears don't break apart ( real metal, not pot metal or all plastic. Technicians can repair or lubricate the scope every 10-15 years and all will be well. Standard type of eyepieces so you can interchange different magnification ranges, and substage lenses to go below the normal lower level, for Silver dollar or larger size. I also really like the Nikon SMZ series, the Mercedes to B&L Camry.</p><p><br /></p><p>It is not like an USB electronic microscope which will zoom forever , but does so by faking the data by extrapolation, so you can see things that are not really there.</p><p>IMO Jim[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
