Aven Tools 26700-218-DFS Mighty Scope V2 USB Digital Microscope with Diffuser
The Aven 26700-218-DFS Mighty Scope V2 combines a 5MP USB digital microscope, fine-focus metal stand and diffuser attachment for inspecting shiny and reflective parts. The diffuser softens and spreads illumination to help reduce glare and hot spots, while eight adjustable white LEDs let you control brightness at the microscope body.
Position a part beneath the microscope, adjust focus and lighting, and capture images or video on your computer with the included MicroViewer PLUS software download. Aven lists approximately 10X–200X displayed magnification based on a 24-inch monitor; displayed magnification varies with the viewing setup.
