The AD2 also has the 'no zoom out' issue, exactly as the Siglents and many other scopes.

This is not an issue... ::)

I think I just need a flat cable to connect the BNC adapter to the AD2, otherwise the connector won't last long (hoping that the cable won't add too much crosstalk..).

One thing I don't like is indeed the fragility of the stuff  :wtf:. I don't know how they could use them in university labs and not having them broken the first day by the students.

I should get the get the little Siglent today, will keep you posted.

balnazzar, FYI Probably you will be not able to compensate the Siglent probes with the "Digilent BNC" because the AD2 has relatively high input capacitance (~25pF).
You will need probes with compensation range  17pf< and >30pF. I bought "Sumnacon 2 Pack P6100 100 MHz 600V" from Amazon for $12.99, they will compensate 10 - 35pF.

Just capture few periods in the main scope window and use "Zoom" option.

Well the probe datasheet suggests otherwise:
https://siglentna.com//wp-content/uploads/dlm_uploads/2022/08/Probe_DataSheet-E01B.pdf
Siglent PP510
Compensation Range 10pF-35pF

Correct.
On the front panel is a button to access the Zoom feature, clearly visible unless you need vision aids.
