USB Microscope, Ihong Digital Portable Microscope Otoscope Endoscope Inspection Camera with Advanced 2.0 Megapixels 10-200X Magnifier IP67 Waterproof 8 Led Lights for Android Mac and Windows PC

First, the supplied application doesn't take 1600x1200 pixel images, but 1920x1080 pixel images. I don't know if another application would give a different resolution (I don't have anything else to try). I got it to examine record player stylii, and it performs this quite well (see photos). It helps to use additional illumination, as I found it hard to get reasonable images with just the in-built LED lights (specular reflections and burnt-out highlights). Maximum magnification appears to be when the end is around 3-4mm from the subject, which fills the image with a subject around 3mm long. The first image is a stylus that hasn't been cleaned in a while (Shure M75ED Type 2). In the second image (cleaned stylus), you can see the reflection of the ring of LED lights where the base of the stylus mounts on the cantilever. Just for comparison, I've included a photo of another (new AT-VM95E) stylus taken with a Canon DSLR at 5x actual magnification. The quality is better, but when you consider the Canon DSLR, Lens and Flash cost around £1500 this looks a bargain.

Plugged in to USB on desk top PC and used Win 10 Camera app, did not have to install anything. I then spent hours looking at various things - great. One tip, use "Advanced" to enable manual control of exposure.Then I tried on my Moto G6 phone, I had hoped that the reviews left by various Samsung owners of the app constantly crashing would not affect me, but it did, gave up and uninstalled app after 5 minutes.Will keep as useful for looking at tiny things on PC, both with stills or video.

Dont expect a microscope. It's just like an webcam with easy manual focus.The light incorporated is not useful, and even with that light off is still getting hot. Not warm, hot. My k-probe said 58C. Hopefully the metal body can dissipate all that. I'll use it on a bigger metal stand just for that.Image quality is good for smd work, no major lag.I can not work smd under, adding heat will kill it for sure. Inspection-wise is good, fast reaction to light changes.

Ok for the money I guess and useful for cleaning small things like my earphones.

I suppose it's evident from the fact that it has an advertised 2 megapixel lens, but image resolution is pretty low. Easy enough to assemble, instructions on a micro-dvd, but all in all not much use. Has integral LED lights but these are not very bright. A kid's toy.

Fast delivery, good product.

Can't get it to work with MacBook

It worked without any extra drivers on my wife's Mac - chose the new camera in photo booth. My daughter thought it was very amusing and gross, looking in her ear, my mouth, fingerprints, and other random things to hand. I found the light fader on the cable later. The stand was useful to keep things steady. Hopefully it'll work on my phone once I have an OTG cable.
