Re: [meteorite-list] Need recommendations for microscope

Mike:

I recently purchased a 3.5x - 90x trinocular scope from Amscope (amscope.com) 
for just over $400.  It was advertised at over $800.

I did not purchase the lens for the trinocular to take photos (I will in the 
future) but have been just putting the lens of my camera up to the eyepiece and 
get nice pics.

The scope is well made and I highly recommend it.

 Dear List,
 
 I am looking for recommendations for a good binocular
 stereo microscope –
 the kind that I can use to observe the surface of material
 and slices. I
 would like to get a mid to high-end one with a powerful
 light source and the
 ability to adapt a digital camera. I see tons of them on
 eBay and it is a
 bit confusing for one that knows little about them. Your
 expertise is
 greatly appreciated!
 
 Thanks for your help!
