It can easily connect to a USB digital camera (sold separately) to record what you see in the microscope and save it into your computer as a picture or a video clip. OMAX compound biological microscope comes with eight level magnifications from 40X to 2000X. It comes with a sliding binocular viewing head, two pairs of widefield eyepieces (WF10X, WF20X), four achromatic objectives DIN 4X, 10X, 40X(S), 100X(S, Oil), large double layer mechanical stage with scale, Abbe NA1.25 condenser with iris diaphragm, coaxial coarse & fine focus knobs and variable intensity LED transmitted illumination system. Fully featured compound microscope 2000X magnification with 100X oil immersion objective Coaxial coarse and fine focus Mechanical stage with adjustment handle LED light Solid metal frame construction Binocular viewing head OMAX compound biological microscope offers eight level magnifications from 40X to 2000X. The microscope has 5X, 10X, 40X, and 100X objectives. Coarse and Fine focusing Coaxial coarse & fine focus knobs on both sides. This ergonomic designs helps adjusting the focus easily to achieve your desired result. Variable LED intensity transmitted illumination Transmitted illumination can be found in this product as it has a LED light of which the intensity can be customized depending on the situation. It also lasts much longer than a typical halogen bulb. The double layer mechanical stage gives you full movement of your sample for scanning purposes, or centering purposes. So instead of just the clips moving around on the stage, the entire stage moves in the X, Y, and Z dimensions. So, your slide won’t slip off in any way when you’re trying to locate your point of interest on your slide. Review: Great microscope for homebrewers!! - I'm a homebrewer and I was looking for a microscope with which I could count yeast cells and check yeast viability. I didn't want to spend $500+ on a hobby microscope and my husband found this one for me! The image on 400x is great for counting cells with my hemocytometer (which I bought somewhere else) and it's very handy having the 20x eyepieces so that I can get an even better look at the yeast without having to deal with the oil objective lens (which works fine but is a little bit of a hassle to use and clean, BTW the immersion oil is included with the microscope). This is perfect for the nerdy homebrewer like myself. The image is just as good as the microscope used at a local brewpub here (which is a heavy duty college type microscope). Only 2 very minor complaints: First, you have to assemble the microscope (which is simple) by attaching the top eyepiece section to the base but the hole for the thumb screw that you use to screw the two together was poorly drilled (but then it's an inexpensive microscope). Once together it seems fine but the screw does stick out such that you wouldn't want someone using your microscope without knowing that this screw should not be touched. Second, while the instructions downloaded were generally fine, the instructions for interpupillary adjustment (3.3, page 5) read 'hold the left and right eyepiece tubes and slide the tubes in and out' when it should read ' hold eyepiece tubes and move them apart or closer together'. This is a great microscope for homebrewers. Great images for under $200 - well worth the money!! Just don't forget to get a hemocytometer or at the very least some slides and cover glass. So much fun for so little money!! Review: THIS MICROSCOPE IS THE REAL DEAL!! - My 8-year-old son wants to be a marine biologist, and got a fishtank for his birthday. We're moving away from mindless toys and getting him things he can use to explore the world. When given the choice between a telescope and microscope he wanted a microscope so that he could see the microbes living in the tank with his fish. This was going to be my first microscope purchase, and I wanted to get something that was not a toy, but would serve him now and far into the future (read "high school"). I did a lot a research, and decided to go with this OMAX LED (won't heat up and cook the slides or burn the boy) binocular (much more comfortable for viewing) microscope. This microscope definitely delivers the goods! All the pieces were secure in its styrofoam packing case and once put together, everything worked perfectly. It is true that there is not much of a manual, but I really did not need one to put the microscope together and only needed to view the YouTube video once to really understand the features. The microscope is solid and heavy, and the eyepieces more than survived some excitement-induced clumsiness on the part of my son (he dropped one...twice). You MUST purchase glass slides and glass covers (I made sure to do so), and you might consider also purchasing iodine and a couple of other stains (pay attention, desertcart...I had to get the stains somewhere else!), but within 20 minutes we were looking at onion cells, plant cells from leaves from houseplants, and other cool stuff. From looking online at various pictures of various things, we'll be able to see most of the things we want at 400-1000x magnification (onion cells were clearly visible at 200x), but the extremely high (and much lower) power will give us a ton of flexibility. Once the other stains get here, we'll be able to look at those fish tank microbes, blood and other cells—just about anything. If I'm going to plop down my hard earned money, I better get what I pay for. This microscope is definitely delivers the goods, and I'm looking forward to years of looking at the invisible world with my son. ## Features - The M82E series compact laboratory microscopes provide essential functionality with professional-level refinements. - 40X to 2000X magnification range using four achromatically-corrected objective lenses and two pairs of eyepieces. - The adjustable binocular viewing head uses sliding interpupillary adjustment, and can be rotated 360 degrees. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B005TJ5CEG | | Best Sellers Rank | #1,202 in Camera & Photo Products ( See Top 100 in Camera & Photo Products ) #14 in Lab Compound Binocular Microscopes | | Brand | AmScope | | Built-In Media | Lab LED Binocular Compound Microscope | | Color | Black, Silver, White | | Compatible Devices | Personal Computer | | Customer Reviews | 4.1 out of 5 stars 616 Reviews | | Enclosure Material | Metal | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00729440214418 | | Item Dimensions L x W x H | 11.69"L x 8.35"W x 16.54"H | | Light Source Type | LED | | Magnification Maximum | 2000 | | Manufacturer | OMAX | | Manufacturer Part Number | M82ES | | Material | Metal | | Model Name | M82ES | | Model Number | M82ES | | Objective Lens Description | Achromatic | | Power Source | Corded Electric | | Product Dimensions | 11.69"L x 8.35"W x 16.54"H | | Real Angle Of View | 45 Degrees | | Real Angle of View | 45 Degrees | | UPC | 729440214418 | | Unit Count | 1.0 Count | | Voltage | 7.5 Volts | | Warranty Description | 5 Year Manufacturer | ## Product Details - **Brand:** OMAX - **Color:** Black, Silver, White - **Compatible Devices:** Personal Computer - **Light Source Type:** LED - **Magnification Maximum:** 2000 - **Material:** Metal - **Model Name:** M82ES - **Product Dimensions:** 11.69"L x 8.35"W x 16.54"H - **Real Angle of View:** 45 Degrees - **Voltage:** 7.5 Volts ## Images ![AmScope OMAX 40X-2000X Lab LED Binocular Compound Microscope with Double Layer Mechanical Stage and Coaxial Coarse/Fine Focusing Knob - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61n3ISBv-XL.jpg) ![AmScope OMAX 40X-2000X Lab LED Binocular Compound Microscope with Double Layer Mechanical Stage and Coaxial Coarse/Fine Focusing Knob - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61UXOWe3b4L.jpg) ![AmScope OMAX 40X-2000X Lab LED Binocular Compound Microscope with Double Layer Mechanical Stage and Coaxial Coarse/Fine Focusing Knob - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61Dqdv3G53L.jpg) ![AmScope OMAX 40X-2000X Lab LED Binocular Compound Microscope with Double Layer Mechanical Stage and Coaxial Coarse/Fine Focusing Knob - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51mPpDnSUpL.jpg) ![AmScope OMAX 40X-2000X Lab LED Binocular Compound Microscope with Double Layer Mechanical Stage and Coaxial Coarse/Fine Focusing Knob - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61-Kp04Y6LL.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: What is the purpose and/or advantage of the Double Layer Mechanical Stage?** A: The double layer mechanical stage actually means the stage will give movement of the slide to both horizontal and longitudinal directions. **Q: Is it suitable for examining coins?** A: No. This microscope is for object you can shine light THROUGH. You would need a stereoscope for coins. **Q: is this microscope good for looking at soil organisms? im looking for flagelletes protozao microbes...if anyone know the answer to this please tell** A: It's perfectly fine. Just suspend some soil in water, put on a coverslip, and you are in business. It's no different from any other microscope--and its optics are surprisingly good. Besides flagellates, you will find a variety of other organisms, eggs of various species, fungi, ciliates, amebas and more. **Q: Has anyone used the 2000x magnification? How clear is the image?** A: I found it comparable in clarity to the same magnification in the microscopes at our University's labs. I observed motile bacilli & cocci in a droplet of yogurt the first time I tried it out, and the focus was quite clear. I don't think the visual field is quite as large as larger microscopes (like the ones in the lab) but it's not really noticeable. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great microscope for homebrewers!! *by B***T on December 6, 2013* I'm a homebrewer and I was looking for a microscope with which I could count yeast cells and check yeast viability.

However when it arrived, I was dismayed to find no manual was included. A piece of paper in the box stated that a manual could be downloaded from their website after entering a code, which I was supposed to find on the box, however they had failed to print or stick the code on the box in the place they said it would be. I contacted customer service who sent me a link but in order to access the link I would need a password which they had not provided. You would think it was a matter of national security just to get a manual for a product purchased at full price. On the next attempt at getting customer service, I found someone who gave me the password to access the link, but on finally gaining access to the website, I found the drop down list did not include my model. Finally, third attempt at customer service and Daniel R. said he would email me the manual. Hours later he did email me the PDF. I got the microscope set up, but the instructions said to look through the binoculars and adjust until the two circles converged. Unfortunately I never saw 2 circles and regardless of adjustments, never got anything to converge either. The main problem is, unlike a pair of binoculars, where the two eye pieces can be adjusted to fit one's eyes, on this microscope, the eyepieces are stationary and the only adjustment is to have them go up and down. Very unsatisfactory. I am an adult with a normal sized face and normal eye spacing, but there is no way for me to look through these two eyepieces with both eyes at the same time and their very minimal adjustments do not change that. I contacted customer service again and the only thing they could offer was that I could return it. Absolutely zero attempt to help me resolve the issue or give me any pointers for things I could do differently to get this to work. It is a hassle to have to return and I'm sure there is nothing actually wrong with the microscope but I decided in the end I will just return it, because if it is this hard to get customer service from them, I don't want to be stuck with it down the road when something does go wrong with it. ## Frequently Bought Together - AmScope OMAX 40X-2000X Lab LED Binocular Compound Microscope with Double Layer Mechanical Stage and Coaxial Coarse/Fine Focusing Knob - AmScope 72 Pre-Cleaned Blank Microscope Slides and 100 22x22mm Square Cover Glass - AmScope Microscope Slide Preparation Kit Including Slides, Stains --- ## 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.at/products/1154778-amscope-omax-40x-2000x-lab-led-binocular-compound-microscope-double](https://www.desertcart.at/products/1154778-amscope-omax-40x-2000x-lab-led-binocular-compound-microscope-double) --- *Product available on Desertcart Austria* *Store origin: AT* *Last updated: 2026-05-14*
