Q: Do I need slides to use this portable microscope?

No, the MicroFlip is incredibly versatile. It easily transforms into a slide-based or field microscope for direct observation with a quick flip, providing flexibility in your exploration. The slide base stays flush until you're ready to use it.

Q: What observations are possible with this microscope?

The MicroFlip allows you to examine a wide range of subjects, from animal and plant cells to mites, blood cells, and an array of other biological specimens. It's also suitable for scrutinizing currency and identification documents.

Q: Do I have to use a phone, or can I look through the microscope?

The choice is yours! The MicroFlip offers dual functionality. You can directly observe specimens through the microscope, or you can opt to use the smartphone adapter clip to capture images and videos with your phone for documentation and sharing.

Q: Is the Carson MicroFlip recommended for beginners or professionals?

The MicroFlip is suitable for both beginners and professionals in the field. Whether you're exploring as a student or advancing your scientific career, the MicroFlip's versatility adapts to your level of expertise.

Q: How do I get the best image when focusing with this portable microscope?

Always practice focusing on a flat object at the lowest power setting. Slowly turn the knob until you get close to seeing a focused image. Then turn the knob extremely slowly to get the perfect focus. Then up the power setting and slightly refocus.
