MT3-2 7" LCD Digital Microscopes for Kids Adults 1200x Electron Science Biological Microscope USB & HDMI with X-Y Stage, Slide Sets, LED Lights for School Classroom Lab Family Education

The microscope work pretty good, although plastic covered frame seems to be very sturdy.

I was brought up using the old school single eye-piece microscope so this MatataStudio microscope is light years ahead. It comes in a really neat zipped carrier with foam inserts, includes colourful instructions with pictures, includes a rechargeable battery, charging cable, HDMI cable (so you can link it to a computer and 10 sample slides with a great selection of plant and insect specimens. Set up is super easy; just pop the battery in the base (see photo), plug the USB charger cable in - quick press of the on/off button (next to where the charger lead goes in), a little green light comes on and within seconds the LCD screen lights up and you are ready to explore. One of the best things about this product is the 7 inch LCD touch screen - look at my photos - the magnified specimens in glorious colour. The LCD screen angle can be adjusted so that the kids and I can all see the image - no need to take turns to peer down an eye-piece. The 4 adjustable lenses plus a mounting stage that can be adjusted in height as well as moved from side to side ; plus it has physical measuring scales horizontal and vertical on the stage as well as touch measure on the screen - its incredible. I've only found a few minor negatives - there were no clear sample slides to add your own specimens - but I am sure I can buy them somewhere; and there doesnt seem to be a stop to avoid the lens hitting the glass slide. There are so many adjustments to play with from top/bottom lighting to touch screen magnification so I am still learning my way around it - but so far I am very impressed with it - and I know the kids cannot wait to view their own specimens.

I've not used a microscope since I was a kid, so I'm admittedly not in a position to review this on a professional level, but if you want the opinion of a total newbie who's just diving in and seeing what it can do, I've been really impressed by it! It's an absolute breeze to set up and use, basically no setup needed at all actually, and the controls are really clear and easy to understand. Camera and screen quality are both excellent and are a huge improvement over the more traditional method of looking through the lens instead, giving you an easier way of viewing. It's also clearly much better for group viewing, especially with the HDMI connection allowing you to connect to an even bigger screen (obviously perfect for classroom use). If preferred, you can also connect it to your phone wirelessly and use their app instead. There's two lights built into it which are great for different situations, one on top shining down on the sample, and another shining upwards from the bottom which is better suited for transparent/translucent samples. Although I'm no microscope expert, the 1200x magnification seems like more than enough for most uses outside of professional settings, almost definitely enough for the suggested classroom usage at least! I really can't see any clear flaws with this microscope, if you're looking for something more convenient than a traditional microscope with plenty of digital functionality, this is absolutely a great choice to go with!

This is nicely made and simple to use. It is not cheap, but for its intended audience, a school or educational setting, it feels like a fair price. One of its best features is the crystal clear display, which of course can be seen by many people at once. However, for me, that was something i didn’t enjoy for personal use. I felt detached from the image i was seeing, like it could simply be any old image i had searched on the internet and viewed in my phone. I felt separated from the fact that this was something real right in front of me. I feel peering into the eye piece of a traditional microscope a more ‘real’ experience. Height adjustment and positioning of the slide was silky smooth, but i found it hard to actually locate the specimen and get a focused image on the display. I was hunting around and it felt more random than i would have liked. No doubt this would improve with practice. The storage case is nice, but fairly lightweight and more of a dust cover. I would have really liked the inclusion of some blank slides for viewing my own samples. Once i had viewed the ten samples provided, i was thinking… ok, what now? Despite a few negative points, i do feel this is a good unit and worth buying if your situation can make use of it.

This is perfect for classroom settings, teaching or any home study. It works just as well as you would expect it to, the instructions are wonderful, very thorough and are easy to follow and learn by! Unbeatable quality within the entire piece, the slides and extras. The picture quality is incredible, easy to adjust and clear as a picture with no discrepancies or questions on what is being shown! This is perfect for looking at small particles or cells, the magnification is impressive. The slides are easy to take in and out as well as whatever else you are placing under the lens to look at. It is light weight and easy to move, carry or store while having just enough weight for not falling or tipping over when in use! It is a bit pricey but well worth the value in what you get along with the quality.

The MT3-4 Digital Microscope is an incredible piece of technology that has opened up a whole new world of discovery for me and my family. The 7-inch screen is a fantastic feature, providing a large, clear view of the specimens. The 1200X magnification is powerful enough to see amazing details, and the 5MP CMOS sensor delivers sharp images. I love that it's compatible with Windows, Mac, Pad, and Phone, making it versatile and easy to use with different devices. The 3D stage is a great addition, allowing for precise and detailed examination of samples. This microscope is perfect for kids and adults alike, and it's been a wonderful tool for educational exploration and hobby use. I highly recommend it!

J’ai commandé ce microscope MatataStudio un peu par curiosité, pour l’utiliser à la maison avec les enfants, et on a été agréablement surpris. L’appareil est compact et bien pensé, l’écran de 7 pouces est vraiment pratique, surtout avec la possibilité de l’incliner, ça permet d’observer sans se pencher c’est plus confortable quand on l’utilise longtemps Le grossissement est assez impressionnant (jusqu’à 1200x), même si en pratique on reste souvent autour de 400x pour avoir une image bien nette. Il y a 3 objectifs qu’on peut changer facilement, ce qui permet d’adapter selon ce qu’on regarde (feuille, peau, insecte, etc.). L’éclairage LED est bien aussi, surtout la lumière du dessus pour les objets qui ne sont pas transparents comme des pièces ou des fibres textiles. Le fait de pouvoir prendre des photos et des vidéos est le gros point fort selon moi. L’image est correcte (ce n’est pas du niveau pro, mais largement suffisant pour une utilisation perso ou éducative), et l'application MatataXplore est simple à utiliser. Mes enfants ont adoré enregistrer leurs petites “découvertes” pour les montrer à leurs copains. Je trouve que c’est un bon microscope pour une utilisation familiale ou pour débuter dans les observations un peu plus poussées. L’écran rend l’expérience plus agréable qu’avec les microscopes classiques. Ce n’est pas un outil professionnel, il est bien conçu et assez complet mais le prix est tout de même un peu élevé pour l’usage qu’on en a

Vieles wurde bereits über das funktionell herausragende Mikroskop mit 8MP Kamera geschrieben was ich möglichst nicht nochmals aufzählen möchte. Stattdessen ist mir wichtig Bilder sprechen zu lassen. Die ersten vier Aufnahme sind mit maximalem 20x Digitalzoom bei den Objektiven 4x - 10x - 40x - 60x Die zweiten vier Aufnahmen des selben Objektes sind OHNE Digitalzoom. Die letzten 4 Aufnahmen sind ebenfalls OHNE Digitalzoom aber von einem anderen Objekt. Ohne andere Mikroskope für einen Vergleich zu kennen finde ich die optische Leistung für den Hobby/Hausgebrauch sehr ansprechend und ausreichend. Aber beurteilt anhand der Bilder selbst! Ebenfalls sehr zeitgemäß und komfortabel ist das hochauflösende Touch-Screen-Display und die integrierte und sehr genaue Meßmöglichkeit von Objekten durch bloßes antippen von zwei verschiedenen Meßpunkten. Dabei werden die jeweilige Objektiveinstellung (4x - 10x - 40x - 60x ) sowie die Einstellung des optischen Zooms berücksichtigt und man erhält stets ein korrektes Meßergebnis. Hilfreich für die Darstellung ist vor allem der vorhandene Abbe Kondensor mit variabler Blendeneinstellung. Dadurch erhöht man die Bildqualität und die Tiefenschärfe was die Objekte plastischer wirken läßt. Ober-und Unterlicht sind beide gleichzeitig vorhanden, was bei vielen teureren Mikroskopen nicht selbstverständlich aber für die Betrachtung von bestimmten Objekten sehr hilfreich ist. Bislang habe ich noch kein vergleichbares Mikroskop gefunden das diese umfangreiche Funktionalität, einfachste Bedienung und ansprechende optische Qualität zu diesem Preis in sich vereint. Für mich ein "Rund-Um-Sorglos-Mikroskop". Damit macht der Einstieg in das Hobby spaß!
