This Omax 40X-2000X lab LED binocular compound microscope with double layer mechanical stage is perfect for students of all ages. The construction of the Omax compound microscope is mostly metal, which makes it very sturdy.

As such, the Omax compound microscope is an excellent choice for high school and university level viewing purposes.This set also has in place a double layer mechanical stage (stain resistant), which allows the user full movement of the sample for scanning purposes. Therefore, rather than simply having the clips move around the stage, the entire stage easily moves in the X, Y and Z dimensions.
This will allow the slide to remain in place whichever way the user is trying to locate the point of interest. This is one of the advantages this particular microscope has over others in the market.
In addition to a sliding binocular viewing head, this microscope also comes with four achromatic objectives (4X, 10X, 40X(S), 100X(S, Oil) as well as both a coaxial coarse and fine focus knob.
Depending on the user, a USB digital camera can also be connected for the purposes of recording the specimen under observation. This can then be easily saved on to the computer as either a video clip or in form of pictures.
However, it is important to note that the USB digital camera is sold separately. With all these additional features, this microscope can effectively be used for educational purposes, demonstration and medical labs among others purposes.
One of the other interesting features of this microscope is the stage upward moving lock, which protects both the objective lenses as well as the slides from damage and breakages.
