The original USB Microscope x200 has a fully adjustable stand, a 1.3 megapixel lens and has a magnification of up to x200. The new and improved USB Microscope x400 also has a stand but the lens has been upgraded to 2.0 megapixels with magnification of up to x400. I don't think we have to tell you how freaky the back of your hand looks that close up - but you're going to have an excellent time finding out.
You'll soon be looking at everything within reach (we strongly recommend you start with a five pound note - the detail is amazing!) and you can take digital stills or movies using the software provided. What's more, the included software will measure the items on the screen - all you have to do is provide a scale (the easiest way is to pop a ruler under the lens) and the brainy thing will tell you how big or small your item is. The last time most of us saw a microscope was a long time ago in a science class far, far away but these stylish designs are a long way off from those lumbering things so it won't take up half your desk. You needn't just use these microscopes for fun - the level of detail they bring makes them an essential tool for any aspiring model maker, electronics engineer and would be jeweller.
