Digital microscopes

Digital

— microscopes of this type are actually digital cameras, supplemented with powerful magnifying optics. The image from such a camera must be displayed on the screen; some models have their own displays, others do not have displays and need to be connected to a computer/laptop. The advantage of the first variety is independence from external equipment, the advantages of the second option are compactness and relatively low cost. At the same time, it should be noted that in terms of magnification, most digital microscopes are inferior to optical ones, and this principle is not suitable for a stereoscopic image.
