A couple nights ago I could not sleep and I was checking e-mails and saw one from AmScope, a company that I bought a digital microscope from a while back. I saw the below portable stereoscope that was listed for kids, and it had a phone attachment for pictures. Now the last thing that I needed was another stereoscope, I already have 2 nice ones and the digital one, but I thought that this would be nice to have when on vacations. It is small, light weight, has 10x and 20x eye pieces, but the best feature to me is that the light is battery operated, so it is easy to use anywhere. Here is a picture of a Flexicalymene pygidium that I took pictures of at 10x and 20x, I do not think that it did a bad job. The phone attachment is something that I have to work with to get it right.

Hello, I am looking to buy a portable, digital microscope, that can be used for small to medium specimens. I can't afford anything too fancy, but I really want something that is at least decent. Does anyone have any recommendations?

If you are like me who is semi-disabled and can not bend down I suggest you get one of these or others like it to make collecting fossils more enjoyable and less painful this device has greatly improved my ability to find fossils . I hope this suggestion helps other who are in the same boat as I am
