What is included in this Microscope? Also do you have to use oil for the extreme close ups

Yes. It has the oil. But the highest power magnifications are only achieved with one of the add-ons; of which there are many. I'm not as proficient in its use so to me it seems a bit complicated. But for those who know what they're doing and don't require the best, I think it will be sufficient.

The cleaning kit is included (brush, wrench), plus a funnel used to test consistency. Additional spray tips are not included unless specified.

It came with oil in it. I bought a quart of oil in case it needed some, but I used it a lot last year as we had a bad winter, it used no oil and did a great job. I'm really impressed with it's performance

What attachments are included in this set? (copper brush, patch holder, swab, etc. What???)

it comes with an oil Immersion 100X lens and a Dark field Condenser I have used the 100X lens some and it seemed to work. The dark field is interesting seems to work only with the lower lenses but that could be my inexperience.

See the AmScope MD35A USB digital camera, also at Amazon. The M150 microscope has a 23mm eyepiece and the MD35A fits the 23mm opening. $42.11 at Amazon.

Hi there,Yes, you do need some kind of webcam software in order to view the images through the microscope. We recommend using 3rd party webcam software for Macs, but on Windows the Microcapture software that comes with the microscope would work well.EllenPlugable Support

First the Company selling this microscope is very good and responsible. I have no complains about their services. On the other hand, I wish I could answer your question more precisely. It depends on the work you are doing; in my case the microbiology course was demanding me procedures beyond the capability of this great microscope. I suggest you to research a little bit more and obtain reviews from microscope buyers, sharing your interests in using a microscope before any purchase...

This youtube video may help. AmScope 490 Series Microscope Unboxing and Setup Tutorial (B490/T490) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oGHTM8-SfTc There are other youtube video's with information about this microscope.

This lens does not have a "macro" focal point. In order to use for close- ups, you will need to attach a 500D (77mm) Close- up Lens. Magnification will be 0.34x - 0.05x.

Yes, it is a normal microscope. The USB digital camera is optional and is placed in place of one of the standard eyepieces. This allows you to use the microscope simultaneously for image capture and as an optical monocular microscope, though the focal distance you need may not be the same as what the image capturing unit requires. Keep in mind that the USB camera is very low resolution. You will always see much more detail by eye.

This is not a microscope it is a microscope CAMERA. So powe depend on the scope it is on. I found that the clearest images were at magnifications of 250 and below.

Hello. I think a good product in relation to cost. I use it to make visual inspection of electronic circuit tracks and it works fine. Note that there are other microscopes with higher magnification, which should consider according to your need. For example, I check tracks the width of a hair and achieving them on the computer screen the mouse cable width ie 3 to 5 millimeters and with good detail. So you're going to watch you? with that level of detail you will perform studies? Greetings! ...

My top light went out relatively quick just after using it. ;/ But I do remember a slight blue hue to all the images. I just use a lamp light near the Microscope to take away the blue and replace my missing upper light.

Computer or microscope?......yes...it will work, but if you need more power you must see others brands.Good luck!

It's a microscope, so it seems to work best close up; otherwise you don't have magnification. With that said, I can focus in the lower magnification on an object about 1 meter away, but it isn't really magnified. The higher magnification requires me to be almost touching to focus. This isn't very scientific, I don't know enough about lens math to be, so I just tried it out around the room.

On any scope you can mount a camera through one of the eyepieces. Just remember to focus through the microscope AND the camera to get a good image.
