SnS comment

This is an amazing microscope - technically excellent, but also great fun to use. The main feature is obvious, instead of an eyepiece all viewing is done from the large LCD full colour display screen. It's got some nice touches too that give it a lot of credibility with serious users: there's the mechanical stage for precise slide specimen control and top and bottom LED illumination. The top light is great for viewing solid objects at low-power (minerals and other solid objects). The benefits of being able to record and store images (both still and video) are sufficiently obvious as to need little amplification from us. What's a lot less obvious is just how easy to use this microscope is. The LCD display,clear menus, and crisp push-button controls make this one of the easiest to use serious microscopes we have ever seen. Surprisingly, the manufacturer does not seem to realise the importance of this and instead stresses the technical sophistication and imaging abilities rather than ease of use in his sales literature. Even if you know absolutely nothing about microscopes, you'll find the on screen menus and the dab-button controls on the LCD head very familiar - so familiar in fact that you probably won't resort to the instruction book except for the fine points of the LCD microscopes more elaborate features.

The Bresser LCD digital microscope is top-rank student microscope with stunning modern features that are as at home in education as they are in home entertainment. Our verdict: modern technology at it's best - simply brilliant.
