Hello microbe hunter! May I ask what microscope it is that you primarily use and if I can have the link?

[@SimonsAstronomy]

Nice video

[@fredashay]

What would you say are are the top three brands of high-end microscopes?

[@Microbehunter]

@@fredashay Olympus, Zeiss, Nikon, Leica (no specific order). These are the traditional brands. But also cheaper microscopes can get the job done well (eg Euromex). Much depends on the individual model

[@fredashay]

@@Microbehunter Thank you! Since I couldn't get any technical information about their products from those high-end brands without talking to a sales rep, I looked into the entry-level brands as they are more forthcoming with technical specs on their web sites. I finally decided on an OMAX M8333 trinocular scope with infinity optics. They're having a 15% Laborless Day sale right now so I got it brand new for a decent price direct from the OMAX web site! I really wanted a high-end instrument, but doctors and medical labs use OMAX (Dr. Glaucomflecken named his "Tabitha"). And if it's good enough for doctors and medical labs, it's good enough for me, lol. Once I get it and set it up next to my HO model railroad (don't ask, lol), I'll start searching for the correct adapter for my camera. I don't mind buying the adapter used from eBay or someplace like that. Or I might buy a USB camera made specifically for microscopes. AmScope makes a nice one that includes a monitor as long as it is compatible with OMAX. MicroSafari also makes a nice microscope camera that outputs 4K 60Hz HDMI video (though it's a bit pricey). Again, thank you very much for personally answering my questions and for making your educational videos!!! 🙂

[@microscopyuniverse6286]

@@thebowinarrow8398 Hi, casually I also did my music career. I play cello and classical guitar but looking for a more stable job, I studied histopathology. In my case, Histopathology has a lot of pros and a few cons. For my colleagues principal cons may be to take a lot of hours looking at the microscope and may be hard to find a job place because our teams are short comparing with other specialities. But for your info, I don’t know any histopathologist without job. After hours, my colleagues may be tired but It is not my case because I usually end the day continuing using my personal microscope looking protists and some times, my own prepared slides with no humane tissues. Histopathology is fascinating because even looking same kind of tissue with same final diagnostic, details and images are different such as every year with its spring. Start you career if you want and with your vocation and dedication you will enjoy as nobody. Good luck

I have to say the toy scope was not at all that bad. The chromatic aberration was far not as bad as on my old (~20 years) toy microscope. As a child it's already amazing. I think what matters more than the image quality is some kind of mentorship a child can get with the scope.

[@leandrocermelli1540]

How can I clean the lens of the toy micoscope?

[@Microbehunter]

Best not to clean it. The lens seems to be further in (not on top) and can therefore not be reached so easily. Clenaing usually not necessary. The eyepiece can be cleaned with cotton. No solvent as it might attack the plastic.

[@microbemaniac7372]

Great video Oliver!

[@stevenwilliams6258]

Comparison videos like this really help to understand the differences. Different lenses are impossible to know the benefit without seeing it. I saw a photo of two rotifers in bright field and phase contrast. That is an example of where phase contrast shines. I could see the rotifer details more clearly. Often, I could not really see the benefit. Dark field is another - at 13 I could change the mirror to get different contrast - was it similar to dark field? This is off topic of affordable entry level microscopes. The comparison of the Olympus and an entry level scope is informative, particularly against a toy with the wrong magnification range. It drives home the point of NOT buying a cheap toy microscope.

Hey, I want to buy a microscope that can zoom into solid things, that don't require a transparent slide, which type of microscope is that? Thank you

[@powertube5671]

I was lucky. When I was 6 or 7 years old I got a Leitz Wetzler brass microscope with 10X and 50X objectives and a 10X Ocular. I saved up for a 95X objective and also saved up for a new nose piece that would take four objectives. I was able to remove and replace the nosepiece and eventually bought an extra 10X objective and 15X ocular. I saw the toy ones and they weren't even as good as the one you showed. They were all-plastic junk! That was around 1955. I was also fortunate enough to have a mother who played the piano, so I had a real piano available rather than one of those clinky toy ones with a little over one octave. I realize many families were poorer than ours, but, to be honest, kids are more inspired when they have the "Real Thing." The $70 one you showed would be more appropriate. I took good care of my microscope and had it into adulthood and gave it to my niece after buying a more modern microscope.

Because they are transparent. You can see them a bit if there is a difference in refractive index. To see transparent objects well you need a different technique like phase contrast microscopy.

When I was 12 I got a really nice microscope- not as nice as the huge one in the video but still very nice. Now I'm 16 and really want to figure out how to use the oil so I can see in the highest magnification

[@Microbehunter]

For oil you also need the right specimen (thin). Only use objectives for oil that have the word "oil" written on it, usually the 100x.

[@brain.eating.amoeba]

@@Microbehunter got it! My highest mag has oil written on it

True....king of microscopes...we need a thin membrane and also u can check his video(microbehunter) about oil immersion which was a great video👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

[@bearsoundzMusic]

@@brain.eating.amoeba Be *very* careful when you turn your objective-head! Oil-immersion is only meant to be used with speciments made with a *proper* microtome! You need a speciment of only 1-3 cell-layers thickness! If the item under your cover-glass is thicker that that, you risk damaging the oil-immersion-objective!!!

[@rickmarkgraf2617]

If you accidentally get oil on the dry objectives, clean it off with a cotton stop and a clean solvent such as xylene. Some older objectives are damaged using alcohol (Leitz) and some American Optical have a paired mask that is dissolved by acetone. In a pinch, use lots of windex. Unscrew the objective and clean the front lens under magnification (use an inverted eyepiece). Use a dry qtip to finish.

Honestly the reason I ended up never really working much with my microscopes as a kid was that my expectations were indeed too high and optimistically and wishfully unrealistic. I was a kid who was a dreamer, you see, and I guess I expected to see something really great like looking into the microscope and seeing the cure for cancer just waving at me from the other side of the tube and such, so I ended up bored and hopeless with these devices when all I was seeing as a kid in a metropolitan area surrounded by cement and bricks and metals, was commonly somewhat gross zoomed in images of my own hair and at best the leg of a dead mosquito.

The distinction you make between magnification and resolution (clarity of image) confirmed what I had begun to notice, but still was not sure about, comparing USB microscopes to "real" microscopes. I got a USB hand-held for $29.xx, and it gives an image, takes photos, etc.. Then I got a $300 (approximate) compound microscope (I did not know I wanted a "metallurgical" one). I can only get 100x magnification on the compound with reflected light, but what I see is MUCH more clear. Too bad metallurgical scopes are so expensive!

[@rickmarkgraf2617]

Metallurgical microscopes are the same as any compound microscope, but just use reflected light, which you can provide with a desk lamp. If you want polarized light, trash some polarized glasses. Put one over the incoming light and another over the eyepiece (or lower in the path if you wish. Turn one of the pols until the field is darkest. Don't make it complicated.

What stops the toy USB microscopes manufacturers (which shows picture on mobile/laptop screen via USB cable), from adding a focusing knob in addition to the zoom knob? I like those microscopes a lot, as they are available even for as low as $10 and featurewise are very convenient to use directly over the object without the need for a slide. You can also save a snapshot or video easily on your mobile and share. Except for the issue of non existent focussing knob, they seems to be the next generation. Yes, their optics are not good quality and may be using plastic lenses, but can you tell me why they can't add a focussing knob?

[@peterjonesdelacruz]

[@JosephKeenanisme]

My biggest complaints about the toy scopes is the light source being on a swivel. I bought one to fart around with a decade or two ago and it turned me off to microscopy for that long. Especially if you're buying it for a kid they don't want to fart around with it till the light is just right, they want to be able to see stuff right away. Hehe, I was going to say about what you said. Go up to a $50-$100 price range and check some reviews to step up a bit to a "middle school" level scope and it will be less frustrating for a big. It also serves a few hundred dollars by going to a college level scope. $100 or so is worth risking on getting a kid hooked on science (compared to $400-$500), they don't need a camera yet. A little better quality built and a little better optic will be less of a frustration factor and more of a neat factor. As with most things you get what you pay for when you get the cheapest one. You have to use twice as much of the cheap paper towels and dish soap as you do with the name brand. The same kind of holds true for optics and electronics.

[@nejcstepancic8125]

You know what, if I ever have a kid, I'm buying them one as soon as they're capable of using it. I had one and I loved it, even if it wasn't the best.

Junk like this instument is just adversion therepy to many a budding young amateur,bad optics coupled by the ridiculously high starting magnification will only serve to kill off any spark of enthusiasm for a lot of children. I know its classed as a toy but in the age of internet anti science conspiracy theorists we should be giving young enthusiasts (potential future scientists) the best possible start. High powered 'Christmas' junk telescopes is also a worrying problem in astronomy and has been for decades and is now lining the pockets of of unscrupulous web companies. This microscope might be marginally usable if the manufacturer were honest and used low powers such as 20X-100X, but to have a starting magnification of 300X on a instrument that is obviously using non achromatic and sub standard lenes is unforgivable.
