The Levenhuk Discovery Artisan 64 digital microscope is easy to use as it features a built-in LCD screen. Due to this feature, the microscope is not necessary to connect to a PC, but it can also be used with a computer as it is compatible with Windows and Mac OS (connection via a USB cable). The microscope has a wide field of application: repair of small equipment, soldering microcircuits, studying metals, sharpening knife blades, checking the authenticity of old coins, restoring objects of art, and much more. It features the upper illumination, you can only study opaque objects with this device.
Magnification is adjustable, it varies from 20x to 300x. Focusing is done manually in the range from 5 to 80 mm. The microscope has 8 white LED lights around the camera's objective. The camera is used as an objective, it renders the image. Its 0.3Mpx sensor (with interpolation up to 2Mpx) renders a sharp and detailed image of the observed samples, you can observe it in a real-time mode and, if necessary, save photos and videos to a memory card (included). The special software (included) enables measuring the angular and linear sizes of samples.
The microscope is mounted on a professional stand that has a stage with measuring scales and clips. The microscope operates from a built-in battery that can be charged via a USB cable.

thanks for your request.
Could you specify where and when you bought this microscope?
Can you send us the invoice please?
I was really exited to recive my Microscop, but I have now been trying it out for a week or so and I stille can get a magnefication higher than *120 and my box is promising *600. I would like to know what I have to do in order to reach the promised magnefication.
thanks for your query.
It is very simple to check the microscope’s maximum magnification (this applies to all digital microscopes), you can use the following formula:
Divide the width of the monitor by the minimum FOV (the angular space that the human eye sees when the head is still and the gaze is fixed) to find the lowest level of magnification possible. Then divide the monitor width by the maximum FOV to find the maximum magnification possible.
Please let me know if you have any questions.
