This disrupts most unpacking is its ridiculous size. It is expected a conventional microscope eyepiece, which is absolutely not the case, it is less than half. Immediately forget all the classic uses of a "real" microscope, this object is more of being a big-small pocket magnifier. It does not make a good magnifying glass to read long, the coverage is too small and anyway the grossissemnt is too important. x60 I nen know, difficult to estimate, but enough to explore the details, claws and impacts on all surfaces. Excellent for observing details of a postage stamp or cleavage planes of ore, that rather the stomping ground of the beast Really compact in the pocket (in his case cheap but convenient to protect it), an excellent white light, I have not yet tested the blue phosphor stripes for stamps but it will shine for color. In short, for one-time uses and especially at this price as ridiculous as its size, this is the product to have in his pocket.
