Celestron LCD Digital Microscope II

Built around its 5.0MP CMOS sensor, Celestron's 44341 LCD Digital Microscope II is capable of capturing high-resolution colour images and videos at 30 fps. You can view them on the built-in 3.5" colour LCD display with an effective magnification of up to 400x or (with additional 4x digital zoom) on an external monitor with a magnifying power of up 1600x. Also noteworthy is the 3.5 x 3.5" mechanical stage. The stage features a full X-Y motion control using two precision Vernier micrometres and offers a metal bracket for holding your specimens. To make saving your findings 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 optics feature achromatic objectives and a bright 8-LED illumination system with adjustable brightness. In addition to digital output, this scope features an AV video out port.

Its construction features an arched frame to serve as a carry handle and a 4 x AA battery compartment for cordless operation in the field. Using four alkaline AA batteries will allow you 3 hours of uninterrupted, cordless operation.
