I didn't know this kind of microscope existed, I purchased one for my curious 3rd graders. They loved looking at everything, leaves, fingernails and prints, a collection of seashells and rocks, and their own hair. It really ignited their interest in science and the world around them. It is easy to focus, stable and sturdy enough to let them use it on their own after a little instruction on how to be careful. It was a hit with my class, now other elementary teachers are checking in to buying one for their classrooms.

We love vintage coins, which can be difficult to read the small print. This microscope makes it easier to read the dates and any lettering as well as do some amateur grading of coins in our collection. Also great for other small print. Easy to store after it is put together so it can be used on the fly. 3 adjustment points. Color is awesome!

I got this to look at plants, but it turned into an "everything" microscope for our kids. We can look at rocks, dirt, plants, coins, and easy enough for a 6 year old to drive(with adult supervision.)

The image is crystal clear and amazing if you are comparing it to a magnifying glass. Numerous adjustment functions. Great for stamps and small coins - will not quite get a silver dollar completely in its frame for a picture. You must provide your own micro-sd card if you want to take pictures and here is a big flaw - its very difficult to get the sd card in and out of the slot. Super difficult. The instructions are very poorly written and do not do justice to the little device which is sturdy and quite well built. It does not hold a charge for a long time but gives hours of use on a charge, though the USB cable is also difficult to plug in. Will not magnify to the cellular level but who knew that Lincoln stands between the center columns on the back of a penny - can't see that with your naked eye.

As a magnifier it works adequately. I purchased this item to view and photograph coins primarily. The magnification is fine for my needs but the ability to take photos quit functioning after the first week!

This things works well, but it’s not built to last. If it was made better it would be a killer scope. I don’t use it much and it’s already getting a little bit rattly and/or rickety. So, it’s effective but not built to last. Will need to be replaced.

In this review I took a picture of a 0.01 mm scale etched into a glass plate using the Annlov digital microscope. The scale’s smallest division is thus 10 microns and it is razor sharp. This is the highest magnification point. Going in the other direction you can photograph objects of any size simply by increasing the distance to the object. For large objects you simply swivel the camera head around and image down to a point lower than the base. The camera actually will focus at an infinite distance so if you point it sideways you can actually take a picture of your house. Very well made. Solid metal base and elevation arm. You need to buy a micro SD card to store up to 12 megapixel images or 1080P high definition movies. With a card reader they can be transferred to your phone or other device. LED ring illumination of samples is adjustable with a thumb wheel.

I was initially impressed with the quality of the microscope for the price. The stand is solid, the height and zoom are easy to adjust. The display is descent. Although I had to loosen the tilt bolt some with a box end wrench because it was too tight, but no big deal.False advertisement:This is not a 1200x microscope. I got it as close as I could to a 1mm ruler with the focus knob maxed out and 1mm spanned the height of the display exactly, which is 85mm. That translates to 85x zoom. The "4x" digital zoom on top of that only doubled it, for a total of 170x. This is the typical magnification for this type of microscope so don't expect 1200x from any of the other microscopes in this price range either. This is descent enough for electronics work, looking at bugs ect, but not at a cellular level if that's what you are after. You will need a real microscope for that.More false advertising:At first I had issues with it not working with a 1GB SD card I had, but it works with a 32GB class 10 SD card. I soon discovered that the camera in this thing is nowhere close to HD let alone 12MP. They are doing some serious upscaling to deceive customers. Anything above 2MP (1080P) will distort the image vertically so round objects appear oval. When taking 2MP pictures, the highest resolution that doesn't distort and viewing them on a monitor with the same 2MP resolution, they should appear crystal clear, but they are grainy, indicating that this is a low resolution image that has been upscaled. The file size of these images at the highest quality setting is less than 200kb, once again indicating serious upscaling and a low quality image.In conclusion, I think this product would be great for the price if it actually had a 12MP camera, but as is, it simply does not live up to what it's advertised to be. It will work if all you need it for is working on small things, soldering ect. But it's not good at all for any sort of picture taking, observing insects in detail ect.

Very easy to use and the quality is excellent. Picture quality is even better then the screen. Almost too good... my wife was able to analyze my clothes and see tiny fish scales from live bait. She realized I had been on a fishing trip with my buddies and not at work as I had said. Now she doesn't trust me. In all a good product tho.
