    Comments about Carson CP-11 7-Function Optical Tool:

    My kids have been using this non-stop to examine every object they can find under the microscope, from plant leaves to carpet fibers. They also love looking for birds and at cars in the distance with the telescope and are sure to use the flashlight and compass when we go camping. It was a great gift at a great price.

      Comments about Carson CP-11 7-Function Optical Tool:

      Purchased this with a more expensive microscope. The Idea was for my young boys to play with this inexpensive one and take good care of the costly one. They love to play with it, looking at common household items under magnificiation is very fun for them. I admit that I have also "played" with this microscope. I recommend it.

          Comments about Carson CP-11 7-Function Optical Tool:

          My girlfriend had some bugs for me to look at, first I got a little 5X magnifier with a light.Not strong enough.Then I tried a 60-100X hand held microscope. It was too much magnification and nearly impossible to focus.
          This viewer is perfect for the job and has so many other neat features, I got a second one to carry in my car. This would make a great stocking stuffer too.
