AD246S-M HDMI Digital Microscope 2000x, 3 Lens 2160P UHD Video Record, 7 Inch LCD Soldering Microscope, Electronic Microscope, Coin Microscope, Biological Microscope Kit, Windows Compatible

Excellent for close soldering work. Makes SMD work a breeze. HDMI output allows a larger monitor to be used although the internal screen cuts out when this is in use. SD card included to record the images. Easy to set up and use.

Love the picture quality. Only wish that you could link it directly to a pc to view files at least. It can be done with the help of the supplied micro sd, but it is fiddly. Otherwise a great product an nice to have different lens options. Can maintain a comfortable working height, even with hot air tools in hand.

Excellent microscope if you want high magnification.I struggled to get the magnification down to the level I need for working on watches - but that was because the focal lengths printed on the lenses fooled me. I assumed that the focal length they quote is as per telescope eye pieces, short-length = high magnification. The opposite is true for these, so I was working with the highest power lens.Only 4 stars because when all is said and done it is a modest resolution, slow speed, basic digital camera on a stand with a couple of lenses - so at £170, not a cheap camera. But if it is what you need, it is robust and effective.

I'd highly recommend this microscope.With the three lenses it has versatility. I use mine with the L lens for close up PCB work. It has a great working range and has the ability to stream through the HDMI port at the same time as viewing the work piece on the 7" screen. Ideal for viewing on a bigger screen.The picture quality of the built in screen is very good compared to other microscopes. The image quality from the camera sensor is also impressive.Thr are a few things to bear in mind though. The UHD resolution along with it's 1080p 60fps capability is for recording on to the SD card only and not the output resolution of the HDMI port or via USB. Also it's not a true 4K resolution as the aspect ratio at that setting is 4:3 and not 16:9.And if you wonder what the 3.5mm jack socket is for, which is sometimes hidden under a QC sticker, it's for an optional endoscope camera.Overall I would definitely recommend this microscope over others. You won't be disappointed.

The most important thing with using a microscope for soldering is getting a decent zoom while still being able to get a soldering iron underneath and this is known as the working distance. The long distance lens which comes with this set is very good as you can see from the first two photos. Plenty of room to work and very usable magnification. Fully lowered there is much less room but still usable.As with all of this type of microscope you loose depth perception and don't have so much control over the positioning which can be an issue with larger objects. However it is much cheaper than a stereo microscope with a boom arm which is what you would otherwise need

Just what I expected really good microscope for children and adults wish it had Bluetooth so I could get the photos to my iPad easier so I had to order a micro Sim adapter as well. Overall, the build quality is sturdy and the lcd screen is excellent. The buttons can be difficult to be seen use the remote it’s easier. The different microscope attachments are very good and was easy to set up.

but if I knew when I bought it what I know now I wouldn't have bought it.. This has been said before but the stand is really not that good, it's a bit restricted in movement but quite sturdy. An aquaintance has a different model but on his model the lenses are different, with his you can use lenses from other manufacturers and I assumed being the same brand this would be the same. My aquaintance has switched in an aftermarket wide angle lens for working on larger objects like pc motherboards. This one has a different l;ens system, in Adonstars words after I asked them "Hi. The bottom side of the lenses need to have specific threaded holes to install the screws to assemble the lens to the microscope, these are unique to Andonstar and cannot be used with other lenses" If I had known that before buying I would not have bought this. I am now restricted to the three plastic lenses they supplied with the scope. This should be made clear on the sales page. Very disapointed, the lenses provided are really not very good, the picture is good enough but I am now restricted to these lenses when I would have liked a wide angle lens for the same reason my aquaintance has one to enable work on larger items plus I intended to buy a better quality lens. I am replacing the stand with a boom from microphones to enable completely free movement but so disapointed about the lens. I don't understand why they would restrict these devices in this way.EDIT - Still annoyed about the lens not being able to be replaced with standard lenses but looking into a way to have an adapter 3D printed, anyway decided to make the best of what I had. THe stand that comes with this microscope is really restrictive with no real movement which is just about useable with miniature pcb's but when it comes to something bigger say a PC motherboard it really is a problem. To get around this issue I have removed the stand and added a Microphone boom arm. An idea I had seen talked about on some forums. Anyway I had some success and you can see the results in my pics. I can now move the scope around very easily and because of the way these boom arms work the scope always retains the same aspect relative to the work bench. I can almost cover the whole bench with it. The circular light leaves no shadow meaning a perfect view all of the time. Very pleased with the results.

SoFar All Good, Arrived as expected, quick try out and it focused really well and zoom really good, i have nothing to compare the experiance with as im a 1st time microscope user and not bought for any specific reason other than if i need something more powerful than a magnifyer glass then i now have 1.i have not tried using any additional big tv screen yet as the little screen seemed to work just fine for my needs.I shall update this review if anything changes.
