Re: microscopes
Hi,
Some of the ones on ebay are cheap, and will not do the job for you.
The ones with a USB camera are OK if you get a good camera, the resolution is not too brilliant.
A few people have bought from ebay, but from the US. You can get a better scope for the same money.
A link to look at is this, http://www.brunelmicroscopes.co.uk/
or http://www.richdon-koi.com/shop/?prodid=646
Their scopes are good value for money and do the job, try and get one with its own light source. Magnification of x4, x10 x40 plus two eye pieces x10, x15, will find all the parasites you will come across.
hope it helps,
Dave.
