Author: Dennis RoemigRating: 4 out of 5 starsI purchased the Zoomy for my stamp collecting hobby and it works very well.
Author: Phil PetersenRating: 5 out of 5 starsThis is a great fist microscope for kids, mainly because it is only about 35X! The lower power makes it easier to move about a large object - an insect, a colored picture in the newspaper, petals of a plant, etc. - without 'getting lost.' Focus is sharp for objects in the focal plane; depth of field is good, and lighting from the four LEDs is good. Too many 'toy' microscopes in this price range are overpowered - going to 100X to 500X - which makes them impossible to use, especially for a beginner. Although I bought this for my 5 and 9 year old grandchildren, I am enjoying it as much as, if not more than, they are! Phil
