Great product for examining coins!! by K. Linder (Selma, CA) 5 Stars
October 19, 2009
I purchased this microscope to be able to examine coins a lot closer and take photos. It works just as advertised. Led's reflect in the picture if the coin is inside a reflective surface(plastic case, etc).

Good deal for quick, basic microscope by Matthew E. Dirckx 4 Stars
September 14, 2009
I use this microscope in my research work to take a quick look at small features (10's to 100's of micrometers) on micro-milled metal parts. Because the refresh rate of the image is a little slow, it is tricky to get in focus. That said, this camera is useful for quick, basic inspection. Color balance and light levels are not great, but can be adjusted in software if needed. This would not replace a good microscope with a good camera, but it is a good option if you're on a budget.

works well, a bit touchy, no linux drivers by Scott James (Sarasota, FL USA) 4 Stars
August 31, 2009
works well, takes still and movie images. a little touchy on the focus, a bit like cheap binoculars, but it works once you get the hang of it. I also wanted to setup on Linux, but the imaging chip is not standard. I inquired with Celstron and their technical support line replied that it's proprietary. Oh well, at least it works well under windows. I have example images and movie of insects from my garden at mentalfest dot blogspot dot com. Overall, I feel it's a good value for personal hobby use.
