<p>[QUOTE="desertgem, post: 621666, member: 15199"]I also have everything from a .99 magnifier ( fairly good for the price) that I can carry to meetings and clubs where people want to borrow, to my 10X long focal length loupe that I can hold the coin farther away for better light, to several different microscopes. I also have an USB computer microscope, but my most used is my 25 yr old B&L stereozoom binocular microscope ( 7-30 X, with reducer ( .5X) and a different set of 5X oculars so I can use it from 1.75X-30X to encompass all coins to morgan size. One of the eyepieces is adjustable to diopters so I can use it without my eyeglasses which is more comfortable when going through a lot of coins. My Canon 590IS can easily take quality photos through one eyepiece. I even bought a spare stereozoom off of ebay as I would be lost without one as varieties are my thing.</p><p><br /></p><p>Jim[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
