Use the metal post to raise or lower the microscope for coarse focusing and to change magnification. Secure smaller subjects with the built-in specimen clips to keep them steady while you observe or capture images. For larger objects that won’t fit on the stage, rotate the microscope arm up to 180° to examine them right on your work surface. The microscope includes a ¼”-20 thread that allows you to attach it to any standard photo tripod (sold separately), giving you more flexibility in where and how you observe. Whether you’re using a compact tabletop tripod in a tight workspace, a flexible tripod wrapped around a tree branch in the field, or a low-profile tripod for unique angles, you can position the microscope exactly where you need it. To access the thread clip, simply release the locking nut of the microscope clip and remove it from the stand.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCompact, portable, and easy to use, the Celestron Labs Digital MicroDirect Handheld Microscope brings professional-grade imaging to your desktop, whether you’re a student, educator, hobbyist, or professional researcher.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Celestron","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48282482737409,"sku":"44316-CGL","price":158.33,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0755\/6857\/8817\/files\/44316_Celestron_Labs_MicroDirect_01.jpg?v=1774750506"}],"url":"https:\/\/celestron.co.uk\/collections\/lee-and-ashley-hall.oembed","provider":"Celestron Global Limited","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
