Bresser USB Digital microscope 50x-1000x
Looking for a microscope that connects directly to your computer, takes up minimal desk space and still offers truly useful magnification? The Bresser USB Digital is exactly that. This compact digital microscope combines quality zoom optics, Full HD imaging and intuitive operation - all without the need for a traditional eyepiece. Simply plug in the USB cable and the world of tiny details appears right on your monitor.
Magnification and working distance
The Bresser USB Digital offers continuously adjustable magnification from 50x to 1000x, covering a wide range of applications - from inspecting material surfaces and electronic components to observing insects and plant structures, as well as checking printed materials or fabrics. The working distance ranges from 15 mm at 50x magnification up to 40 mm at the maximum 1000x, leaving plenty of room to handle the observed sample. Focusing is manual and precise, so the image stays sharp even at higher magnification levels.
Lighting, image quality and software
Proper sample illumination is provided by a ring light with 8 LED diodes featuring stepless dimming. This allows you to adjust the light intensity to suit the specific material - whether matte or reflective surfaces. The image is captured at Full HD resolution (1920 x 1080 pixels) and transmitted via USB directly to the included software. The software enables not only a live preview but also taking photos in BMP and JPG formats, or recording video in AVI format at 30 frames per second. The practical on-screen measurement function will be appreciated during technical inspection or scientific documentation.
Setup and compatibility
The microscope can be used handheld or mounted on the included stand, which ensures a stable position during longer observation sessions. Power is supplied exclusively via USB (5 V), so no batteries or external power supply are needed. The microscope is compatible with Windows from version 8.1 and macOS from version 10.13, making it easy to connect to most current computers and laptops.
