This little jewel opens up the digital photography world to the next step past macro-photography. It is a handheld microscope camera with video capability. Unfortunately it is subject to the same optical physics that make a microscope difficult to operate focusing and depth of field. However, one has a two eyed view on a 2" x 2.5" screen on the back of the instrument rather than the microscope's small round lens. The screen upon activation tells you that it is a "Digital Mobile Microscope". While useful for field applications where it it difficult to bring the subject to the instrument, one is more likely to bring mobile subjects to the kitchen table or work desk.
The manual seems to be a machine translation from some undetermined source language and is therefore somewhat limited. It needs to be rewritten by an American who has learned to use it. However, once one figures out the basics and determines that the instrument is relatively rugged, most functions can be determined using a combination of paging through the manual and pushing buttons.
This instrument should find use among naturalists, (professional & amateur) forensic professionals and anyone interested in exploring and documenting the world below the limit of visual acuity. Buy it now and generate a demand for the next model with more features.
