LCD microscopes

LCD screen

— the microscope has an LCD screen that replaces the traditional eyepiece. You do not need to bend over to such a device each time to view the image, which is very convenient if observations need to be combined with record keeping and other similar activities. Microscopes of this design usually have the function of photo and video recording, as well as various built-in tools — for example, a scale grid for estimating the size of visible objects, displayed directly on the screen. In addition, the image on the screen can be seen not only by the direct user, but also by everyone who is nearby; such features are indispensable during training sessions, consultations, presentations, etc. On the other hand, such microscopes turn out to be bulky and expensive.
