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.

Questions and Answers
MICHALIS SPYROU (2023.07.26)
I have bought the Discovery Artisan 64 Digital microscope from Cyprus. The purpose I bought it is for to clean old coins from dirt. My problem is that the microscope basically the screen does not respond to the actual colors of the coin neither with the existing light it has nor with the sunlight with the result that I cannot distinguish the green dirt on the coin to clean it. What can I do? Is there anything better to remove the expensive colors? Is there any upgrade?

Asger Schmidt (2023.05.11)
Dear Levenhuk.

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.
Customer service:
Dear Asger Schmidt,


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.
