Re: [pestlist] Recommended zoom magnification in microscopes
Thanks all for your help and insight! It's greatly appreciated!

In the four years I’ve been using it I’ve had no problems with it all. The 35x zoom magnification has been sufficient for my purposes. All around great tool.

I'm currently looking at one that 35x zoom, and another that's 40x zoom. The cost difference is quite significant (almost double), so I'd like to ensure I select the correct one, not just the one that suits financially. I'd like something that covers a broad range of pesky critters, from beetles to booklice. Would 35x zoom magnification suffice? Any information and advice would be greatly appreciated!

I use a Pro-scope HR2 - https://www.bodelin.com/proscope . I like it, but the dino-lite stand looks better than mine. I see that the Pro-scope now has a wireless unit which might have its advantages.
