Celestron 44340 LCD Digital LDM Biological Microscope Reviews
It is too far away and not bright enough to light solid specimens. The microscope/camera combination is great in every way except one very important feature, the top light is inadequate. It does work fantastic for specimens that light can pass through.
However, I did order another style of a Celestron Microscope without the LCD screen. I ended up sending it back for a refund. It is also very easy to use and very lightweight. I ended up returning this item for a replacement because it had a dark spot in the middle of the LCD. Once I received my replacement it did not have a dark spot but now there was debris internally that could not be removed. I give this product 3 stars because the concept and viewing options for this unit is incredible. it just so happened I did not receive a "keeper".
Because of these things, the finish of the microscope has a used look. However it records acceptably. There is at least one misspelled word in a menu which makes the interface seem unprofessional. The video it creates is in the Windows.wmv format. The spot does not show up when you record a video, so it must be a problem with the LCD. The photo and movie recording interface is simple and easy to use.
The company has not yet replied to my support email on this subject I sent 4 days ago. There is a distracting dark patch in the center of the LCD. I'm pretty happy with this microscope that I purchased to use with my daughter. The screen is clear and responds to movement (rotifers) without any kind of low fps problems. Paint on the objective lens housings is worn looking and there is a scratch on the upper illuminator's plastic housing.
