Hi Guy's,

Here are the first pics and videos from my new Omax 40X-2000X Built-in 3.0MP Digital Compound LED Microscope and my 5-80X binocular Zoom Stereo Microscope+0.5X Auxiliary Lens+56 LED Ring Light.

The compound scope has a built in 3.0 mp camera but I am not to happy with the quality of the pics it takes, here is one from the built in cam on the compound scope

This is a piece of random flotsam in pond water

it is decent but I bought a separate cam to use with the stereo scope it is a 3.2MP USB Digital Camera,I used it with the compound scope as well and I like the picture and video quality much better.

Here are some pics and vids that I shot today

This is the head of a freshwater flat worm at 100x

This is the eye of the worm at 400x

These vids are of what I believe to be the worms circulatory system

these where taken with the compund scope at 100 and 400 x

This pic was taken of a small desicated baby lizard that was around a half inch in length it was taken with the stereo scope.

The lizard pic was 11 images focus stacked with combinezp

Let me know what you guys think.

Hi Bruce,

I agree with 75RR.  Very good for a first effort.  Images 2, 4, & 5 are very good indeed. I agree with you about the much superior quality of the new camera.  If I may suggest something, I would say try to use lower magnifications so that your field of view is larger, to give more context to the images (but that is just one person's opinion).
