The Higher the Magnification - The More Detail You'll See

Magnification is the ability of your microscope to make small objects seem larger. As the magnification increases the area being viewed will be decrease is size but the detail of the area being viewed will improve.

Amscope microscopes come with multiple magnifications to aid you in finding the proper magnification for viewing each specimen.

Camera Connection Types

When comparing 2.0 and 3.0 there are few major differences. First the transfer rates. USB 2.0 offers transfer rates of 480 Mbps and USB 3.0 offers transfer rates of 4.8 Gbps - that's 10 times faster.

Camera Resolution

The most important factor in ensuring successful microscopic imaging is choosing the appropriate optics and camera for your application that gives you more data and higher image quality. When selecting a microscope camera, it is best to base your decision on the most important requirements for your microscopic observation.

Key Features

  • 5MP USB digital camera captures still images and streams live videos on your computer
  • Includes calibration slide for establishing measurement baselines
  • Sophisticated software for Windows XP/Vista/7/8/10 offers editing, processing and advanced features including Stitching, EDF and measurement functions
  • Linux and Mac software records video and still images, with controls for exposure and color
  • Fits four mounting sizes: 23mm, 30mm, 30.5mm, and C-mount (two mounting adapters included)

This 5MP high speed digital camera for microscopes is designed to capture still images, as well as stream and record live video on Windows, Mac, and Linux computers. The user-friendly, stand-alone software for Windows XP/Vista/7/8/10 offers advanced features, including stitching, EDF (Extended Depth of Focus), video-recording, and measurement functions. It allows you to make notes, shapes, watermarks, and precise measurements with ease. Preview and capture resolutions can be set independently, allowing you to simultaneously view high-speed, low-resolution live video, while capturing higher-resolution images or video. The software for Linux and Mac allow you to capture still images and record video, as well as control color and exposure.

Designed using the C-mount standard, the camera with the included reduction lens and two sizing-adapters can fit 23mm, 30mm, and 30.5mm photo ports and ocular ports. The reduction lens increases the field-of-view to better match what's seen through the eyepieces. Using a standard USB 2.0 connection, the camera is easy to install. Drawing power from the USB connection, no additional connections are needed. The included calibration slide allows you to take accurate measurements in the software by creating baseline measurements at multiple magnifications.

Great 5Mp camera….

This camera seemed a good compromise between resolution and cost. I use it replacing one of the eyepieces on my ancient Nikon Labophot and it produces excellent images! The software (downloaded - who has a CD player these days?) is intuitive and easy to use. It had lots of features which I probably will never need or use and I am totally surprised that it is free!!!!

Great camera, great software, good value!

Excellent!

A welcome change to the rubbish out there

Using Win7, my Amscope 5MP camera installed easily and worked right away. Software, camera and support good so far.
