I recently found myself to have both the time and renewed interest in "Cherry Picking" pocket change in the hopes of finding that "Million Dollar Coin" I realize my chances of winning the lottery are probably just about as good but at least this way I can still "cash in" all my losers for face value and seem to have more fun playing the "game"When the bug hit me, all I had at my disposal was an old plastic lenses, 2X Loupe. Quickly I realized that was woefully inadequate and began searching for something better. First as the 20X loupe. Awesome but very limiting and going back and forth between the two loupes often gave me motion sickness and horrible neck and head pains. I shopped around and bought and returned many items before I started looking into both standard and digital microscopes.Being on a fixed income, most of what I saw was well out of my price range to try and justify spending for a "maybe" hobby. I just was unable to take such risky leap into the unknown. When I came across the "bysameyee" USB Microscope with included case and stand for only $21.95 I eventually came to the decision to just go ahead and order it. This really was just such a great entry level price point and although I did see some unfavorable reviews regarding the stand, I have no regrets.What I like about "bysameyee" is it is everything they claim it to be. Their Software is very easy (and free) to use. Specific uploads for specific devices, I was quickly and easily able to get the scope to hook up to my Android phone,(which I can connect wirelessly to my 52" T.V) My Chrome book and Win 8.1 Laptop, also connectable to the TV. NO issues whatsoever. The Microscopes cable offers regular USB style with a nice little flip up connector end that fits your phone and an additional 3rd style separate adapter piece that I have not needed but have just in case. Both the "Amcap" and the "Cooling Tech" software's are easy to use. Mostly I just use the "Amcap" photo capture s.w. on the laptop. In the "options" tab of that s.w. , you can go into the "video capture filter" tab where you can enable zoom function or leave that off and select different "filter" options which can be very helpful, especially with newer "shiny" coins.What I don't like: Not much really, I was expecting it to be less than more and I just don't think I have any reason to be dissatisfied with my purchase. So where is it' limitations? First you will read up that the stand "sucks"... For what I am doing, I have found it can be difficult to get it focused under higher magnifications just because is so light, just thinking about the focus can cause it to wiggle. What I do is set it where like you see in the pics, the most of the coin I can see at once is probably seen best with the "AMER" photo, I put the edge of my laptop so it rests on the base of the scopes stand, then I use a piece of paper to slide the coins around under the lenses.The LED lights are really only on or off, not much of a graduation there but I can elect to turn off the LED's and direct sunlight or other light source when needed. One thing that can be difficult to determine sometimes is doubling due to reflection of shiny, well plated coins. One trick I quickly found was to view the same suspect areas from different angles. Viewed from one direction you might think you see doubling but as you shift the viewing angle you will see the reflections shift. Also, the 20x loupe is another quick way to double check what you thought was going to be the big one. This get's easier to deal with and recognize with a little practice.You can see in the pics, especially with well circulated samples, there is more than enough detail and depth to quickly spot any errors or differences. Now this is NOT a 5mp or better scope, so sometimes it can be difficult to actually get down "into" some of the cracks and crevices, especially with trying to use the light weight stand BUT I didn't buy this for the stand and the manufacturer does offer a big discount on a better stand, that if they had included initially, would have driven up the price point beyond what I may have been willing to pay. I wanted an "entry level" digital scope at a reasonable price and am very pleased with what I received.If you have any interest in digital scopes but are unsure about just how much scope you really need, I highly recommend giving this one a try, and get the one with the case too, I think that was maybe $2 more but it sure comes in handy holding more than just the scope. NOW, while this may NOT be the $500 plus microscope that one day I hope to trade for some penny I find , this is the scope I will find that penny with!Lastly, Customer Service: Awesome! I only contacted them to inquire about their Big Discount offer on the Better stand. Terrence happened to be on vacation initially but still got back to me in a timely enough fashion that I truly expect would be even quicker for the next person. Also, sometimes it can be difficult with language barriers when trying to read directions or communicate in person, NOT HERE. One thing I was particularly impressed with, was the super simple and no nonsense user guide. Nice job guy's, I use to have redline digital product user guides before...... It took my company 6 pages to describe how to remove a battery door cover and install 3 batteries even though it was shown in raised plastic lettering on the units battery door and compartment???Sincerely, "future millionaire" Andy C :-)

4.0 out of 5 stars Great value for price, zoom can be manually adjusted
Reviewed in the United States on May 12, 2023
This is a decent entry-level digital microscope, for the price. I bought it to examine coins in greater detail, but I was about to return it due to zoom features not working for Mac users. However, I managed to find a workaround (explained below) to manually adjust zoom and it’s now suitable for my purposes, so I’m keeping it.

Some pros: I have a MacBook Air (intel chip, if that matters) and it was plug and play. It works with PhotoBooth as well as the app available on the seller’s website, but I haven’t played enough with them to notice any differences. The carrying case is nice and seems rigid enough to bring with on travel (looking forward to snooping through my relatives’ coin collections). There is a dimmer dial on the cord so you can adjust the brightness of the LED lights. Images are clear once focused and you can see enough detail on coins to identify errors.

Some cons: Zoom button doesn’t work for Mac users, so I couldn’t zoom out enough to view the entire coin (fixed via workaround, explained below!) 40-1000x is laughable (Despite what other reviewers have claimed, you’re not gonna see bacteria or skin cells. Even hair strands aren’t really magnified enough to see anything cool. It’s good for bugs, coins, fingerprints, and fine print.) As others have mentioned, the zoom dial is really just a fine focus dial. Stand is flimsy and it experienced an immediate RUD but was easily reassembled (although if you visit the seller’s website, you can upgrade your stand for free - eagerly awaiting mine).

Before I explain how to adjust zoom, I’ll clarify the problem I was having. Since Mac users don’t have a functioning zoom button, the only other way to “zoom” is to physically move the scope closer to or further from the object, and the only way to adjust focus is by twisting the 40-1000x dial. In my image titled “Max Zoom”, I’ve shown what I was able to see right out of the box at 40x (portion of coin, including date) and at 1000x (portion of one digit of the date). 40x produced a clear image at a distance of about 1 inch, and 1000x produced a clear image at about 1/2 inch. This was not the range of zoom I was hoping for - the detail is great, but there was no way to zoom out to view the entire coin at once.

After a bit of off-manual tinkering, I am now able to view an entire coin at once. First off, the thing that needs to be adjusted will henceforth be referred to as “the thingie” since I couldn’t be bothered to look up its actual name. (It’s the part that contains the lens, see image titled “the thingie”.) To access the thingie, you need to twist off the clear plastic cone at the end of the scope. The thingie is fully retracted at 40x, so to bring it out of hiding, do NOT try to pull it out with pliers like I did. Instead, simply twist the 40-1000x dial all the way to 1000x. Then, you can adjust the thingie by screwing/unscrewing it. If your images are too zoomed to begin with like mine were, you need to screw the thingie in further. If your images are not zoomed in enough, you might need to unscrew the thingie a bit. See my image titled “the thingie” that shows it screwed all the way off (probably don’t do this) to see how many threads you’re dealing with.

I tested the full range of zoom/focus to see what was possible. My image “Max Zoom” has the thingie screwed all the in, and as mentioned earlier, you have to get really close (within 1”) in order to be able use the focus dial. “Min Zoom” has the thingie unscrewed as much as possible without it falling off. At 1000x, you have to be point blank but can still get amazing detail. At 40x, I could get a clear image of the penny and its environment from a few feet away! (I promise it’s clear, my iPhone decided to just focus on the foreground). So the Goldilocks zone for me was with the thingie screwed 2/3 of the way in (see “Med Zoom”) so I got a clear image of the entire penny from about 6” away at 40x, and can still see fine detail 1000x at point blank.

I also included images saved from the app itself, after finally adjusting the zoom to my liking. All three images of the penny are taken with the same zoom setting, but at different distances/focusing (my point being, you really only have to manually adjust the zoom once, no need to keep messing with it - the focus dial can take care of the rest).

Hope this helps someone out there, it would have saved me some trouble!

I was referred to your product from a friend and bought it to review my tiny light pipes. Only 1.5mm Dia and difficult to review with eyeloops and regular magnifiers. The lighting on the microscope is an excellent tool with dimming capability to be able to detect the shadowing effect caused by the gates on my parts as seen on the pictures I have included. Quick setup and intuitive software. Excellent product. Recommend to anyone that needs to see tiny details with ease.
Thanks so much.
