I got the Andostar 301, it doesn't have an eyepiece, but was a lot cheaper. Works great so far, expect I haven't figured out how to save files directly onto my PC. I might have to order a microSSD card and reader for it to get stuff onto PC, which is a pain. |

It's incredibly frustrating as you don't have any depth perception. The first time you look through a proper stereo microscope and experience the 3D view, you'll understand why it's the only option. |

Quite true, the stereo microscopes have two objectives that are pointed toward the place where the unit focuses, and some prisms to bend the image so it comes in more straight-on to your eyes. So, you get two different images presented to look as a big thing a foot or two away from your face. This reduces eye strain and just quickly becomes natural, and you develop a new 3D adaptation for what you are working on in micro-scale. Between the mon-ocular view on a screen and maybe some delay between the real object and the screen, I can't imagine that would be great. Jon |
