UNIVERSITY OF OXFORD 64x-800x Microscope Starter Set

View tiny objects up close with the UNIVERSITY OF OXFORD 64x-800x Microscope Starter Set! The microscope will take you on a fascinating journey into the microcosm, allowing you to view everyday objects such as sand grains 64 to 800 times bigger than with the naked eye. What’s more, the set includes everything that you’ll need for your new hobby.

Comprehensive microscope set with quick setup 

Unpack, position and start observing – the microscope comes with a few permanent slides so that you can get started straight away. Each of the pre-prepared samples is guaranteed to stimulate your interest in the microcosm. Start with the lowest magnification and marvel at how the transmitted light suddenly makes the invisible become visible. Then you can increase the magnification step by step: the 2 eyepieces and 3 objectives provide a total of 6 different magnification levels, each of which will show you a completely different image.
 
However, the bright LED can do much more than just illuminate transparent samples from below. If you’d like to view a coin, stamp or small animal up-close, you can use the optical device as a reflected light microscope so that the specimen stage is illuminated from above. 
 
Become a young researcher with this microscope starter set!

Once you’ve got the hang of how to use your new microscope, you can go on the search for your next project. Leaves, petals or onion skin – almost everything from nature is worth a closer look! And thanks to the included microscopy kit, empty slides, cover slips and other accessories, you can prepare your own permanent slides in no time. When you’re ready to place your slides under the microscope, the colour filter disc will ensure that you can see every detail, even in colourless samples. In addition, the microscope set also comes with an experiment for breeding brine shrimp, which allows you to view the tiny creatures up-close as they grow.

Includes smartphone holder – take photos directly from the microscope

If you want to share your microscopic discoveries, you can use the smartphone holder to take photos of your observations. Simply insert your phone, secure the holder to the eyepiece and open the camera app on your phone to take stunning snapshots and videos directly through your microscope. Your friends and family are guaranteed to be amazed!
