USB Digital Microscope Camera, Jiusion 40-1000X Portable Magnification Endoscope 8pcs LED with Adaptor Professional Stand, Compatible with Mac Windows XP 7 8 10 11 OTG Android

I took a chance on this Jiusion USB digital camera from the many to choose from out there. Nearly all seemed to have mixed reviews regardless of cost, either being very positive or very negative. A couple audiophiles reported using this camera with good results, so I ordered this one. Received this today. Plugged USB cable into my desktop, was quickly recognized, and pulled up the Windows 10 native camera app. No issues. For the price, this camera does the job for what I need it for. Not lab quality but very acceptable and recommended.Update… They raised the price from $24 to $34. Humm… Also, while I’d still buy this again, like other reviewers have stated, I call “BS” on the 1000X power side. Its more like 100X, but that works for what I need this camera for.

This scope is sufficient for my needs. Great value for price. Initially wouldn't work on my HP Windows 10 laptop. It would only see the laptop camera. I uninstalled AMCAP software,then unplugged the scope. I then plugged the scope in again, the OS picked up on a new USB item plugged in, and enabled the scope using the generic Windows driver. I then ren AMCAP.exe and selected the USB Camera.Now the system recognizes unit, and it works good.I gave it 4 stars because it should have been more Plug N Play.Also the zoom function doesn't allow for very close proximity to the subject,preventing the use of the higher end of the available range of focus/magnification for most close ups. And at the high end of magnification, the picture begins to pixalate, which indicates most of the magnification comes electronically,not from expensive optics.Over all, this is a very good value for the money. I'm happy with this scope, and would buy it again.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR WINDOWS 10: This product will not work for windows 10 unless you change the webcam driver for the device. Here are the steps I followed to make it work successfully. 1. Install all software you receive in the box (miniCD) and the Amcap.exe program. Typically there will be a driver error for the microscope when you try to use it with the Amcap program. 2. With the microscope plugged into the USB port go to your computer settings (control panel). 3. Click on the "devices" option. Scroll down to "Related Settings," and click on "Devices and Printers." A new window populates. You should see the microscope under "Devices." My computer labeled it as "USB 2.0 UVC PC Camera." Click the microscope's icon to open the properties menu. 4. In the Properties window click on the "Hardware" tab, click on the button in the bottom right labeled "Properties." That opens another properties window (hang in there, we have a ways to go) where you will need to click on the "Change Settings" button in the bottom left hand side with an Admin symbol. That opens the same properties window but now you can make changes. 5. Now click on the "Drivers" tab at the top of the window. Click the button labeled "Update Driver." You will receive a prompt reading "how do you want to search for drivers?" click the second option "Browse my computer for driver software." In the next window click on the second option labeled "Let me pick from a list of available drivers on my computer." FINALLY, you will see a list to chose from. The driver that came with the microscope, GL USB 2.0 UVC Camera Device, does NOT work. Click on the item labeled "USB Video Device." Update using that driver and it should successfully install and the microscope should work with the Amcap application.This product is what it seems, a cheap but effective microscope. But it does have quite a bit of magnification and works great for observing small objects in detail... just don't expect to see protein chains in a helix of DNA. I use it for mineral collection an it is a great way to avoid spending hours squinting through a jewelers loop.

I liked being able to see the images good.. The thing that I didn't like was I really could learn how to use it good enough.. I keep losing it on the laptop.. Had to reload the little cd twice to get it back.. Probably just me not knowing how to use it properly..

It works well enough to use professionally but its inexpensive enough to have fun without worry. It's easy to use and works well with my Android phone and with windows 10 pc (its cable is both a USB and Mini USB).The seller “Jiusion” answered my email question about the installation within the hour (they ship fast too!).The photos of this mechanical pencil were taken free handed, no stand. The large pencil picture is just the phone without the microscope. The xacto knife was taken after 16 mts use!A quick update; The scope and light still working awesomely after 16 months! honestly didn't think it would be do to how inexpensive it was. Great product all around! Thanks! Pd

Very poor quality item. I didn't expect it to be the highest quality for this price, but it is next to useless.I'll start with a pro:-It was delivered well packaged & much faster than expected.As for the cons:-The software is very dated, and the link for software updates is dead.-Terrible resolution. Even at the minimum 40x magnification it is pixellated with a lot of noise, it is like watching an old tube TV. Anything above that & if you can get it to focus it looks like a Minecraft landscape.-It is almost impossible to focus on anything detailed. There is no focus ring on the camera, focus is achieved by moving it up/down on the stand.
