10 Megapixel Microscope, is it true? - (Dec/08/2015 )

Hi all,

I'm thinking about buying a new microscope and I've found one on ebay with exellent features:

I wanna use it for histology and study.

What do you think about its price? Is it too cheap to be good? Has anybody used it before?

Having had a quick google search, it seems there are a few universities that use AmScope cameras, but I don't know about the microscope itself. However, here's a hint that may save you some money... go direct to the Amscope page, same package for same price but free shipping in the contiguous US (i.e. not Hawaii or Alaska). You can also check out how they do things - whether the lenses are good quality?, how big the sensor on the camera is? etc...

Thank you for your fast answer, I'll check their homepage.
