The guy that wrote this certainly likes it:

We had a "nosema night" at one of our meetings last year.
The guy who did the talk recommended these as good value but not perfect.

I know of another association where they felt a much more expensive one was justified after trying this.

I suppose you get what you pay for.

For the individual beek (or perhaps 2 or 3 sharing) it is attractive.

We have one. Quite good value. I also have an optical microscope. Considerable difference in quality but having the picture on the screen is good.

Can you not look down the eyepiece? or is it a view on screen only?

Somerford they are there on the 17th

well, knowing Lidl, I'd better start queuing on the 16th - they seem to run out of their offers in half a day.

Thanks for the date

According to the description Veg you get "Barlow 2x zoom lens and 5x and 16x wide-angle eyepieces" so you must be able to use it as an optical mic as well as a pc mic. Hope this helps

Cheers Thanks for the replies looks like I may get one. As said they are good at taking items back with no questions asked
