Capture your discoveries with Bodelin's ProScope HR Handheld Microscope. The compact and ergonomic hand unit can be used with optional Bodelin lenses to achieve magnifications up to 400x and features a high-quality Aptina CMOS imaging sensor for delivering superior image quality that is suitable for professional settings and applications in science, medicine, industry, or forensics. The 1.3MP, 1/4" imager has larger than average pixels to deliver clear, high-contrast images and videos with up to 30 fps frame rates. Using optional c-mounts or other adapters, it can also be attached to select microscopes and borescopes. The base's design offers a receptacle that allows interchanging optional lenses quickly and easily with an instant snap-on action. To deliver bright and clear high-contrast images, each Bodelin lens has its own built-in LED illumination ring, and to protect the glass optics and LEDs from dust, dirt, and damage it has a clear white nozzle at the tip.
The construction of this compact scope does not lack in ergonomics and utility. The polymer handle offers contoured shape for a comfortable grip, conveniently located control buttons near your thumb and index finger, and a forward-looking camera directed at a 90° angle relative to the handle. For PC connectivity, the handle is outfitted with a metal ¼"-20 tripod socket and a long (6') USB 2.0 cable that ensures an easy reach.
The included software makes integration with compatible Windows and Macintosh computers an easy plug-and-play experience. It also allows a multitude of parameter settings and customization to provide a truly professional touch for your data.
