Celestron PentaView LCD Digital Microscope

Rock your field trip, lab, or classroom with the PentaView 5.0MP Cordless Digital Microscope from Celestron. This full-size digital microscope is built around its 5.0MP digital CMOS sensor, capable of capturing high-resolution colour images and videos at 30 frames per second. You can view them on the built-in 4.3" colour LCD TFT display and relay them to an external monitor or a recording device. To make saving your findings and observations a seamless experience, the LCD module offers an easy-to-use control panel, a 32GB microSD memory slot, and a mini-USB data port. To provide vivid and crisp images, the optomechanics features a 4-position nosepiece with five achromatic objectives (4x, 10x, 20x, 40x, and 60x), a top and bottom LED illumination system with adjustable brightness, a 0.65 NA condenser lens, and a 6-position filter/diaphragm wheel. The included 60x objective comes detached and can be easily installed instead of another objective. You are also empowered by the generous focusing range to ensure that no details will be left unseen. In addition to digital output, this scope features an AV video-out port.

This versatile device also does not cut short on comfort and ergonomics. It features an arched frame to serve as a carry handle and packs a battery compartment for four AA user-supplied batteries, which can provide 3 hours of uninterrupted cordless operation. For corded operation, the scope has a universal 100-240 VAC adapter (that works in most parts of the world) and wall plugs for the USA, UK, Europe, and Australia. To provide enough room for movement, its sturdy metal mechanical 3.5 x 3.5" stage offers Vernier control for motion in two dimensions and a bracket for holding your specimen slides. For sharing views with your team or students, the display head can rotate 180°. Using the fine and coarse focusing knobs, it allows you to achieve optimal focusing positions. The microscope also ships with other multiple lab accessories that you will find quite handy in your explorations and studies.
