The ideal user would be an infrequent user that doesn't not require an extremely high quality internal look inside cells. I personally use this microscope for analyzing semen samples collected from swine. I am fully able to accurately assess motility and morphology of the cells. How It Can Help You This microscope will allow you to accurately view cells on a molecular level. If you are looking for a basic entry level microscope I am quite certain that this device will more than exceed your level of expectations. The criteria I used to evaluate this product are pretty basic; ease of use, quality of focus, and light permeability. You will find that this product is extremely to use. The basic setup of the focus knobs are easy to distinguish between the corse adjustment, larger knob, and fine adjustment, small knob, easily allowing you to finely adjust your viewpoint on your desired specimen. I also appreciate the quality of focus this device can provide its users, which after purchase I'm sure you will too. Lastly the adjustable bulb shade allows you to effectively shade the amount of light that penetrates the slide. This will allow you to easily push light through darker specimens or lower for clear cells. Closing The Deal Overall, I would highly recommend this product to nearly any entry level user it can come with a few draw backs for a more advanced user such as, inability to see inside cells clearly and lack of a binocular objective, which could be expected as it is clearly marketed as a monocular objective however I do think it could improve the ease and clarity of use. However, this scope has fully met and exceeded all of my expectations for this device and I am extremely happy with this product and would buy it again. Review: Awesome microscope for the Price. - I bought this for my Aquarium Hobby and for my daughter. Mainly for myself. The 2 of us have a lot of fun looking at stuff. This really opened up my daughters mind. She said "now I want to see what everything looks like under a microscope." The photo I posted are of parasites/bugs I found in my Fish poop. I also did a Skin scrape of my fish to check for External parasites and that did not have as many fun things as the poop. The stool sample was just a Squish mount and I was very happy with the quality of this scope. I had a Cheap kid microscope back when I was 10 years old in the 80s. I loved that thing, but this one is SO much better. I am happy I made the upgrade. So worth the money. I worked in Vet offices for years and went to vet tech school. So I have used a microscope before. This scope can see most of what you need. I would like a moving stage. You need a moving stage if you want to do a good Fecal or blood scan. This stage does not move. You have to move the side by hand and that is a pain. It is easy to miss things when you do it by hand. So for just general use I love it. It feels really well made I would have liked binocular lens but that was too much money for the amount of time I was going to use it for. If anyone keeps fish and knows what Parasites or "bugs" I have here please let me know. The microscope can only help you if you know what it is you are looking at. I have much research to do. ## Features - This is an ideal microscope for home school or for students in elementary to high school to learn sciences - 360 degree rotatable monocular head offers five magnification settings 40X, 100X, 250X, 400X & 1000X - Widefield all optical glass elements includes single lens condenser with disc diaphragm - Sturdy all metal framework - LED illumination system uses either an outlet (adapter included) or three AA batteries (or re-chargeable batteries) ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B00AM5XB5O | | Best Sellers Rank | #106 in Camera & Photo Products ( See Top 100 in Camera & Photo Products ) #2 in Lab Compound Monocular Microscopes | | Brand | AmScope | | Built-In Media | AAA Batteries | | Color | Black, Silver, White | | Customer Reviews | 4.5 out of 5 stars 3,023 Reviews | | Enclosure Material | Metal | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00608729745327 | | Item Dimensions L x W x H | 10"L x 7"W x 15"H | | Item Weight | 4 pounds | | Light Source Type | LED | | Magnification Maximum | 1000 x | | Manufacturer | United Scope LLC. | | Manufacturer Part Number | M150C-I | | Material | Metal | | Model Name | M150C | | Model Number | M150C | | Objective Lens Description | Achromatic | | Power Source | Battery Powered | | Product Dimensions | 10"L x 7"W x 15"H | | Real Angle Of View | 90 degrees | | Real Angle of View | 90 degrees | | UPC | 608729745327 | | Unit Count | 1 Count | | Voltage | 110 volts | | Warranty Description | 5 year Manufactuer | ## Product Details - **Brand:** AmScope - **Color:** Black, Silver, White - **Item Weight:** 4 pounds - **Light Source Type:** LED - **Magnification Maximum:** 1000 x - **Material:** Metal - **Model Name:** M150C - **Product Dimensions:** 10"L x 7"W x 15"H - **Real Angle of View:** 90 degrees - **Voltage:** 110 volts ## Images ![AmScope M150C1000X All-Metal Optical Glass Lenses Cordless LED - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51bA57i3HgL.jpg) ![AmScope M150C1000X All-Metal Optical Glass Lenses Cordless LED - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71hO4IMt8TL.jpg) ![AmScope M150C1000X All-Metal Optical Glass Lenses Cordless LED - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61V5KVU-1qL.jpg) ![AmScope M150C1000X All-Metal Optical Glass Lenses Cordless LED - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51Nd1f+EXFL.jpg) ![AmScope M150C1000X All-Metal Optical Glass Lenses Cordless LED - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71bvlve1lTL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Size, Style** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: One of the pictures indicates it can be connected to a computer, I assume via USB cable. Is that a correct assumption? If so , does the cable come wit** A: Purchased May 2017: I made the mistake of assuming this had a camera with USB computer because of the product description. In my opinion it is very misleading. You're only getting a microscope, 1 extra eye piece, and an AC adapter. No other cables or slides included. **Q: If my son put things like hair, or a penny, or grass under it, would he be able to see them? I know some microscopes have a top light for seeing these** A: This is what the manufacturer states: This is a perfect microscope for students to learn science. It comes with full optical glass elements, metal framework, 360 degree rotatable monocular head, coarse & fine focusing, and LED illumination. It offers five magnification settings, 40X, 100X, 250X, 400X and 1000X. It is an ideal microscope for home school or for students from elementary to high school. It is also an excellent instrument for hobbyists.Features :A Great Affordable High Power Student Microscope with Coarse & Fine Focusing45 Degree Inclined 360 Degree Swiveling Monocular Head with Locked-in EyepieceBuilt-In Contemporary LED IlluminationPlain Stage with Clips and Stain Resistant FinishFully Coated Optical SystemHigh Resolution Offering Sharp ImagesFive Levels of Magnification: 40X, 100X, 250X, 400X and 1000XSingle Lens Condenser and Disc DiaphragmFocusing Control Knobs on Both SidesFull Optical Glass ElementsPrecise Ground Glass LensAll Metal Mechanical ComponentsSolid Metal Frame with Stain Resistant Enamel FinishManufactured under ISO 9001 Quality Control StandardExcellent Five (5) Year Factory WarrantyUnbeatable low price Guaranteed or the Difference Back!Satisfaction Guaranteed or Your Money Back!Specifications :Head: 45 degree inclined monocularEyepiece: WF10X & 25XObjectives: 4X, 10X, 40XCondenser: single lens with disc diaphragmStage Dimensions: 3-1/2" x 3-1/2"Illumination: LEDPower Supply: 110V/60Hz **Q: can this see sperm?** A: Yes, it is.

A solid choice for viewing items of interest up-close. *by P***B on August 11, 2016* We have so far only looked at a couple of things in this microscope; a small flying bug placed on a slide, and a drop of blood (I cut myself doing some home improvement projects, so captured a drop on a slide). This microscope does a fine job of allowing us to view these things up very close. I'm definitely glad I got this version with the fine-adjustment knob included rather than the less expensive version with only the coarse adjustment knobs. The microscope itself feels solid and well-made. The 3-element rotating assembly works well and is nice and tight. The LED under-light works well with a nice smoothly adjustable brightness level. The stage is stable, with useful slide clips, and adjustable light aperture disc located underneath. This unit works equally well on battery power as with an AC adapter; for my purposes I'm sure we will only ever use it with batteries. The microscope also comes with a nice dust cover to protect it when not in use, and a secondary eyepiece to provide additional magnification when desired. At the highest magnification level with the more powerful eyepiece, the LED light does struggle to provide sufficient lighting, but you can still make out details on your subject slide well enough. Honestly, at this price, I am quite happy with this purchase. I wish the LED light was capable of a bit more brightness, but for most purposes it works pretty well. The scope is sturdy and feels like it will last quite awhile. I also wish it had come with a better storage sleeve for the additional eyepiece. Even better still if the microscope had a place to store the extra eyepiece, or came with a storage case, but I'll make do. Overall, it should work great for showing my young daughter the interesting and amazing world of microscopic viewing. ## Frequently Bought Together - AmScope M150 Series Portable LED Monocular Student Compound Microscope - 40X-1000X Magnification - Microscope Kit Includes Dust Cover, 2 Clips & 2 Eyepieces - AmScope Microscope Slide Preparation Kit - Includes Blank Microscope Slides, Eosin Red & Methylene Blue Stain Powders, Tweezers, Swab & More - 22-Piece Kit - OPTO-EDU E35.3501 Blank Microscope Slides & 100-Pieces Square Cover Glass, Glass --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.us/products/82038898-amscope-m150c1000x-all-metal-optical-glass-lenses-cordless-led](https://www.desertcart.us/products/82038898-amscope-m150c1000x-all-metal-optical-glass-lenses-cordless-led) --- *Product available on Desertcart United States of America* *Store origin: US* *Last updated: 2026-07-31*
