Description

AmScope SE305R-PZ 10x-20x-30x-60x Advanced All Metal Full Glass Optics Student Binocular Stereo Microscope with Incident (Top) and Transmitted (Bottom) LightsFrom ManufactureAmScope SE305R-PZ is a forward binocular stereo microscope offering 10X-20X-30X-60X magnification settings. It comes with sturdy all-metal pillar stand and a versatile illumination system that provides both incident (top) lighting and transmitted (bottom) lighting. You can choose between incident illumination shining down onto the object or transmitted illumination through the frosted stage plate. The first is used for the observation of three-dimensional objects and the second for the observation of slides. This microscope offers high resolution and good depth within a broad field of view. It gives sharp clear stereo images. Its 45 degree inclined binocular head ensures an easy observation and rubber eye- guards provide further comfort. It comes with first-class quality and affordable price. It is brand new in factory-sealed box.ApplicationsAmScope SE305R-PZ is great for many applications. It can be used in geology, forestry, archaeology, agriculture, biology and is appropriate for educational purposes in hospitals and schools. It is great for the exploration of the world of surface details and fine structures of various materials like wood, metal, solder, semiconductor and stone. It is perfect for the examination of insects, plants, rocks, stamps, jewel, soldered points, microelectronic components or virtually any three dimensional objects. This scope is an ideal tool for watchmaker, jeweler, engraver, dies-maker, philatelist, coin collector (not able to view a whole coin), students, and etc.Built to LastAmScope SE305R-PZ comes with optical glass elements and solid metal body. Glass optical system ensure sharp clear quality of microscopy images. The metal construct makes it possible for the microscope to last more than ten years that just enough to cover all the way from elementary to high school. Metal body is also more sturdy at high magnification level, and minor turbulence will not distort the image.About MicroscopesMicroscopes are instruments used to enhance the resolution of an object or image. Types include compound, stereo, or digital. Compound microscopes use a compound optical system with an objective lens and an eyepiece. Stereo microscopes show object depth in a three-dimensional image. Digital microscopes are used to display an image on a monitor, rather than looking through a lens. Microscopes can have monocular (one), binocular (two), or trinocular (three) eyepieces, with varying magnification abilities. Magnification ability refers to the size of an image. Resolution, also known as resolvant power, refers to the clarity of the image. The interaction between field of view (FOV), numerical aperture (NA), and working distance (WD) determines resolution. Microscopes can control magnification through a fixed focus, or through a range of adjustments. They can also utilize LED, fluorescent, and mirror light sources to help control viewing capabilities. Microscopes are widely used in education, lab research, biology, metallurgy, engineering, chemistry, manufacturing, and in the medical, forensic science, and veterinary industries. AmScope has been manufacturing microscopy equipment and accessories since 1996, headquartering in Irvine, CA.Features & Specifications:45 degree inclined binocular head with locked-in eyepieces Four magnification settings: 10x, 20x, 30x & 60x Sharp stereo erect images over a wide field view Metal body construction with arm stand High quality original true color Ocular-tube with adjustable diopter Accurate alignment ensuring a fatigue-free long hour viewing Full optical glass elements Precise ground glass lens All metal mechanical components Adjustable interpupillary distance Built-in incident (top) and transmitted (bottom) illumination system GS & CE approval electric apparatus Extra bulb, white/black base plate and rubber eyeguards included Head: 45 degree inclined binocular Widefield eyepieces: WF10x & WF20x Objectives: 1x & 3x Diopter adjustment: +/-5dp Interpupillary distance: 2-3/16 inch - 2-15/16 inch(55-75mm) Working distance: 2-1/8 inch (53mm) Frosted glass objective plate: 3-3/4 inch (95mm) in diameter White/black plastic objective plate: 3-3/4 inch (95mm) in diameter Illumination: AC 120V power supply (220v version available), 12V/10W bulbs Accessories: a pair of eye-caps, a pair of clips and a dust cover Manufactured under ISO 9001 quality control standard Excellent five (5) year manufacturer warrantyWhat's in the Box?Binocular microscope with forward pillar stand and top & bottom lights, 10x widefield eyepieces (pair), 20x widefield eyepieces (pair), 3-3/4 inch (96mm) frosted glass plate, 3-3/4 inch (96mm) plastic plate, Wrench for focusing tension adjustment, Eye-guards (pair), Clips (pair), 12V/10W spare bulb, Dust cover, Customer Information Sheet (manual download link included).

  • Amazing first scope/gift for kids!
This scope is a bargain for its quality and ease of use. I already feel I made the perfect choice for a first scope for our children (ages 10, 9, 7,3). It was very easy to set up. Within minutes we were viewing slides (bought the set of 25 from Amscope). Then we grabbed a Japanese lady beetle off the floor and put it under 30x. Creepy! Amazing! Crisp images of its still twitching legs and mouthparts. Great view of its compound eyes. Wife practically jumped off the chair when she saw it! We have also looked at: moss, fungus, lake water/gravel (complete with tiny live clams), coins, toothpick, a band aid, rock salt. Can't wait to find some spiders! Things I like about this scope: inexpensive, metal construction, crisp optics, bright light, easy to adjust inter pupillary distance, ability to throw just about anything you find under it, kids' delightful responses to seeing things, stereo optics. Things I don't like: nothing yet. If you are looking for a great easy to use, quality scope this seems like a perfect choice. This is a high value item to bring into your home. Will update review in a the future. Happy shopping! Update 1: (one hour later) Couldn't resist going back to 'the scope' tonight. Found what appears to be live midge larvae and an aquatic worm in the lake sand sample. Sucked them out with a pipette. They are now waiting in small bowl for my kids to check out when they wake in the morning. This thing is so darned cool! Also I dialed in the diopter on the left eyepiece and the image clarity went from crisp to ultra HD. Update 2: (about three months later) It is great to own this scope. We throw anything under it and are amazed by what we see: feathers, bugs, coins, etc. I just brought it to work to check out some high tech sandpaper we just bought. It was incredible to see it at 30X. My colleagues couldn't stop looking for things to put under the scope, and one even said "I have to get one of these!" So, I recommend this for anybody for a home scope of low/med power that is great for kids and adults alike. Very easy to set up an use. BONUS: You can use an iPhone (I have an iPhone 6) to take pictures through the eyepiece! See attached photos. ... show more

  • Perfect for viewing 0402 SMT electronics! Very very happy!
On a tight budget and having to buy things out of pocket for work at a startup. They went to 0402 (sized components) without any prototyping. I looked for about a month for something I could afford. Almost bought used scopes more than once for more $ than this one cost new. When the shipping rang-up at about $3 I was worried that the unit was actual size in the photo. But when I opened this puppy up... wow! It's a real microscope! Absolutely full size, heavy, and solid. More than that, it is absolutely perfect for what I am doing. One of the options for changing magnification is a quick turn of the large circular, bottom lens carrier to select "1X" or "3X". When you turn it, it clicks in and out of place very smoothly, locks into new position very firmly and has the perfect resistance during the turn. You just know that the people that designed it, and the people that built it nailed this one. I am so impressed, and so happy to be able to write a positive review. If you check back through my reviews of a wide variety of products, they are all negative because I am too lazy to write positive reviews. But this microscope is so well built that ... I have to write about it. The unit comes assembled. There is a second pair of higher power top lenses supplied, but I found that the lower power ones that come pre-installed are perfect. As mentioned, the bottom lens changes between 1 and 3 power. That turns out to be perfect. You will usually use it at the lower power. It is powerful enough to see and solder 0402 sized components, but weak enough that you can see a little bit of the surroundings to orient yourself on the board. To more closely examine a solder joint, you can swivel that bottom piece to the 3X position. In doing that, you don't lose optical position. This thing is very precise. Very very good deal. Note that there are two halogen lights provided, one above, and one below the specimen platform. If you are using it as I was, for electronics, perhaps you should remove the bottom light. Use a rag or paper or something since you are not supposed to get skin oil on those halogen bulbs. Of course do it cold. There is a power switch for selecting the high light, the low light, or no light. There is also a cover for if you are not using the bottom light. It makes sense to remove the bulb if you are not using it so that you don't overheat that bottom area if you accidentally turn that light on with the metal cover in place. They probably designed it to handle the heat, but just in case, I would remove it. The halogen lights provided are generally better than LED lights. The color is better. Everything is great on this microscope as far as I can tell. I love it! The people I work with are also quite pleased with my purchase. ... show more

  • Great item for the price...
Very happy with this purchase. Well design, excellent quality, easy to use with or without instructions, has a nice weight to it--no cheapy feel, has top and under slide lighting (important feature: under slide lighting allows you to see transparent/see-through objects; top lighting is more for solid objects viewing from the top), ergonomically designed so that I can comfortably reach all nobs and levers comfortably, comes with multiple power lens, well suited for various novice to semi-serious educational uses, comes with a cover, len chambers are clean and clear (some cheaper microscopes have dust/particle trapped inside the len chamber which interferes/corrupts observation), excellent pricing, smooth operating parts--I have nothing bad to say about this microscope. Everyone loves using it--we put anything that fits under the scope to view a whole new world for awareness/knowledge. It is a jewel in our family and no one abuses it; it is used and left in its pristine condition to make this gem lasts. ... show more

  • UP CLOSE AND PERSONAL
This scope is very easy to use. All adjustments are easy to change. I keep mine on a small utility cart so I can move it near wherever I am sitting. Fun for any curious human…. Of any age.
