The Veho Discovery DX-2 5MP Digital USB Microscope is designed to assist you in your scientific studies and observations. For convenience you can choose to use it handheld, or to free up your hands just place it on the included stand that allows you to precisely set the height of the microscope above your specimen, from rocks and gems to slides, stamps, or textile samples.
Using the USB 2.0 cable between the microscope and your PC, you, your kids, or your students can use this handy microscope for a wide variety of home, school, or field observations. The optical system features a 5MP CMOS imaging sensor that allows you to capture still images and video at up to 2592x1944 resolution. The body is compact, lightweight, and ergonomic, with a transparent bezel to protect the lens and the eight LEDs from dust and damage.
