User questions & answers

Question:	Buenas noches, el Tetraview viene con su respectivo estuche
Answer:	Hola buenas tardes, el que yo compre viene muy bien empacado y trae un estuche interior con cremallera de muy buena calidad que permite que el equipo este siempre protegido, es como de una lona firme muy buena. Yo lo utilizo en una porcícola donde prolifera mucho el polvo y las cucarachas y ese estuche permite que siempre este alejado de todo ello.
Question:	How do you turn it on? All I get is the opening setup screen and no instructions
Answer:	been a while since I have used mine, however, connect power cord to wall, or use 4 AA batteries, then I turn lights on, and push and hold screen power button. after that, this is a "touch Screen" so there are hidden commands that you can pull up by touching the lower or upper "edge" of the screen. they will come to view then. did your microscope come with a manual (about 4 pages in english, the rest is all other languages) ?
Question:	The reviews posted are often for other Celestron microscopes. I would like to know specifically how this model performs. Can someone post a review
Answer:	Like others, I have a different model (44345), but all models are pretty much the same, Mine is listed as a 5mp, but there are doc's listing it as 2mp and others as 5mp, You will replace the objectives! so don't buy it for them. The top LED is trash not bright enough for anything I have found! The unit has a auto focus and white balance with no way adjust or shut it off.So in the beginning it was almost useless to me, I added better Objectives and then discovered I could over power the auto light adjust. The cost of Microscope light are VERY high, so I added a Sewing machine LED lamp about $100 cheaper.I use it for insects, I have to trick it to get a good Pic, I flood it with light then turn down the base light with the disk (to almost blocking the light). Also it readjust the light after ever pic.I am getting what I need to complete the job.The Base stand is nice, I got mine at Fry's
Question:	Looking at grains of sand and foraminifera: will it work for solids
Answer:	My wife is a AKC judge and a breeder of " COLLIES " " you know like Lassie come home".She uses your product for checking sperm and absolutley loves it. gbm

User questions & answers

Question:	What are some tricks to getting the 25x to focus and be as sharp at the 10x eyepieces? Can you only use the 25x for the 100x with oil
Answer:	It really isn’t that useful to use the 25x ocular lenses, the 10x work fine, but using the 25 x reduces the field of view so much that unless you are looking at something and need a small area magnified I suggest you don’t need them. You can use it with the 100x but it won’t work well because it goes above the reducing power of the lens. Pretty much 100 x 10 is the top end of good resolution.
Question:	Ex i want question about sending date,,if you want sending this microscope to all over the united state,s for us,,how much it long time aboutly
Answer:	I don't think it took more than a week to arrive
Question:	Does this have a top light? That lights up things from the top not just from below
Answer:	Actually I don't think it does have a top light. All of the magnification is up on top and the light is in the base. There are other items you can buy to attach to this scope however like an external viewer for example or to take photographs or a slide. It is a really great scope....as good as the ones I used in college!
Question:	Is this microscope strong enough to identify and differentiate between species of mold
Answer:	This is a pretty inexpensive microscope and the optics, while offering up to 2000 x magnification, are not great. Considering Galileo used optics he made himself I would say if you employ ingenuity and creativity you will be able to differentiate mold species. I've seen some amazing things with my microscope. The 2000 magnification uses the oil immersion technique for clarity.

Product features

Product Description:

Features a Siedentopf binocular head that rotates 360 degrees for easy shared use and allows for quick adjustments to the eyepieces for different interpupillary distances without losing focus. The swiveling head can also lock in any position for additional stability. Ocular tubes are tilted at an ergonomic 30 degrees to reduce neck and eye strain. The microscope comes with two interchangeable widefield 10X and 25X glass ocular eyepieces, which pair with the four achromatic DIN objectives -- 4X, 10X, 40X(Spring), and 100X(Spring, Oil) -- in the rotating nosepiece to provide 6 magnification levels between 40X and 2500X. Coarse and fine focusing dials on both sides of the metal arm make fluid and exact precision adjustments.

For specimen viewing, an LED bulb beneath the stage transmits light up through an industry-standard Abbe condenser with 1.25 aperture and an iris diaphragm. Manually move the condenser closer to or farther from the stage to adjust brightness and evenness of light as well as image contrast. A metal slide holder locks specimens into place for viewing on the sizeable double-layered mechanical stage. An x-y translational control knob moves the stage and the slide holder left-to-right and front-to-back, eliminating the need to re-clip slides in order to view the entire specimen.

The SW350B has a compact but solid body that is nonetheless easily portable with the built-in arm handle.

What can you see with it? Compound microscopes offer detailed, cellular-level views of transparent or dyed specimens prepared and mounted on a slide. (For magnifying solid objects, use a stereo microscope.)

Combine the camera-compatibility with the microscope's powerful ultra-precise focusing system to stream or capture beautifully sharp specimen images at each magnification. Live-stream video for large lectures or clinical demonstrations; the possibilities are nearly endless with the SW380T!

What can you see with it? Compound microscopes offer detailed, cellular-level views of transparent or dyed specimens prepared and mounted on a slide. (For magnifying solid objects, use a stereo microscope.)

User questions & answers

Question:	Has anyone used the 2000x magnification? How clear is the image
Answer:	Not great to be honest, a little fuzzy and dim when used with wet prep slides or oil immersion. It's as good as can be expected from a microscope of this price range though.
Question:	is this microscope good for looking at soil organisms? im looking for flagelletes protozao microbes...if anyone know the answer to this please tell
Answer:	It's perfectly fine. Just suspend some soil in water, put on a coverslip, and you are in business. It's no different from any other microscope--and its optics are surprisingly good. Besides flagellates, you will find a variety of other organisms, eggs of various species, fungi, ciliates, amebas and more.
Question:	Is it suitable for examining coins
Answer:	No. This microscope is for object you can shine light THROUGH. You would need a stereoscope for coins.
Question:	What is the purpose and/or advantage of the Double Layer Mechanical Stage
Answer:	The double layer mechanical stage actually means the stage will give movement of the slide to both horizontal and longitudinal directions.
