What is your microscopy history? What are your interests? What equipment do you use?

Hello!

#1 Post by shirleey22 » Thu Apr 16, 2020 12:54 am

I’m Shirley. I’m studying Biology and Microbiology here at Puerto Rico. I know somewhat about microscopes but i consider myself amateur. I’m on the journey of searching for a good cheap microscope like Swift SW350B or OMAX M82ES. Oliver recommended me the Swift one since it has better optics and has a proper cable, not an adapter like the Omax. I really can’t afford a used Olympus or those prestige microscopes. I only want to look at pond water and find amoebas and water bears! If you have any comments or advice, feel free to reply! :D

Welcome to the forum. I’m from the Dominican Republic living in FL.
You can also take a look at Amscope. It’s in the same level as Swift and I can tell the customer service is top notch.
I got the Amscope T340B. I like this one because the led is more powerful (3w VS 1w) and I have no complains at all.
I was in the same where I couldn’t afford a used top of the line and decided to go with Amscope with no regrets
