for my part it is true that the first test I did only confirm all the comments when the obligation of having to approach the object a few millimeters from the lens of the microscope so that the latter allows a correct view . Handyman nature and observe that after the end of the eyepiece was a ring with a thread I deduced that it was used to refine the sharpness so I immediately wanted to check point I'm up to a total unscrewing the ring and I am therefore left with the ring and the lens in one hand and the rest in the other. What I thought was a mistake immediately is quickly turning into good idea because when I tried to look through the telescope lens and without his bennn ca has been surprised because I had the same quality increase object distance viewing so much more comfortable to use.
Anyway ... !!!! remove the lenses to improve user comfort.
