Re: Newbie questions
As you can see I have a T340 scope and as a low budget hobbyist scope it is well worth the money. Yes there are plastic parts for the condensers, the camera tube is not adjustable in height and a few other minor problems but overall it does a great job. Will post the manuals when I get a chance. The...

Re: Cladocera (Water Flea) with Egg

Plus the flea itself is only 270 x 200 um. As to being resting or normal egg I will need to dig further into this since my knowledge is ver...
