The QQ CAT Binocular Compound Microscope helps students and hobbyists examine and share tiny specimens with ease. Is the magnification and digital capture useful for everyday lab and classroom work?
⚡ At a Glance
- • Image Quality: Electronic eyepiece USB camera combined with wide-field eyepieces and multipliers gives clear, shareable images across a large magnification range
- • Best for: High-school and college labs, hobbyists and beginners who value digital documentation
- • Not ideal for: Users who require battery-powered, truly portable field microscopy without mains power
Magnification spans 200x–5,000x with a built-in electronic eyepiece camera and phone adapter. Sturdy metal and aluminium construction plus coaxial focus and ergonomic tilt suit extended teaching sessions.
Detailed Observation – With 200x–5,000x magnification and 6x multiplier
Convertible objectives 4x, 6x, 10x and 100x used with two wide-field WF50X eyepieces and two WF6X magnification lenses produce the stated 200x–5,000x range; a 6x multiplier can further increase magnification up to 30,000x. The optical combination allows selection of lower-power overview or very high-power detail.
High magnification reveals tiny organisms and fine structures for lab tasks and hobby study, while objective switching keeps framing straightforward.
Image Capture and Sharing – With an electronic eyepiece USB camera and phone adapter
A built-in electronic eyepiece USB camera connects to microscopy software on a computer and pairs with a specially designed mobile phone adapter for Android phones to capture images and record video. Live viewing, screenshots and recordings are all supported through the supplied connections.
Quickly document findings for reports or lessons and share live views with students or colleagues using a phone or PC.
Stable, Comfortable Use – With metal frame, coaxial focus and ergonomic head
Sturdy metal and aluminium frame construction reduces vibration at high magnification while precision coaxial coarse and fine focus knobs on both sides permit accurate adjustments. The 45° head tilt and full 360° rotation permit comfortable viewing and easy sharing around a bench.
Stable platform and ergonomic controls reduce fatigue during extended sessions and make collaborative viewing easier in classroom or lab settings.
