| The Dino-Lite range of digital USB handheld microscopes are small and portable for when close up inspection is required. |
The QX5 is not only a microscope that captures images at 10X, 60X and 100X magnification, it can also be used to create time-lapse movies. Aldi stores sometimes carry a similar digital microscope at a significantly lower price. |
The Proscope Mobile microscope has the advantage of not only being handheld but it can also sync wirelessly with iPods and iPads |
