This compact yet powerful digital microscope is the perfect companion for up-close observation on the go. The onboard 3-inch, full color TFT LCD screen flips out when you need it, then folds back into the microscope body for portability. A rechargeable lithium ion battery provides hours of viewing time in the classroom or on a nature walk. FlipView, with its 10x to 120x magnification is a low-power microscope perfectly designed for viewing an array of 3D specimens, from beach sand to bugs, coins and currency, documents, circuit boards, and more.

Combine that with the 5-element IR cut lens, and youll achieve sharp images and video of your specimens. A ring of 8 adjustable LEDs provides the perfect illumination for your shot. Insert any Micro SD card (up to 32 GB) to save images and videos, or plug the microscope into your computer via the included USB cable and capture images using Celestrons Portable Capture Pro software. Or stream the view from FlipView to a television or projector with the included video out cable. 3 WAYS TO OBSERVE With one of Celestrons most versatile designs, FlipView can be used in three configurations depending on the specimen youre viewing: Use it in handheld mode for quick and easy observations.
