sorry to pull up an old thread

"Umm,Fish?" is using one of these. seems to take pretty good photo's of his six-line wrasse prolarvea. It also shoots video!

Amazon has them for $170 with free shipping... http://www.amazon.com/Celestron-44340-D ... 398&sr=8-5

I was going to start a new thread but seen this one. I am thinking about ordering one of these. Walmart has it for $100 http://www.walmart.com/catalog/product. ... ku=9219274

I seen it mentioned that a few of you had these. How do you like it? Could you post some sample pics? Also is there plenty of clearance for a petri dish?

["Umm, fish?"]

All my recent microscope shots are with one of these. Not too bad, really, for a cheapo 'scope.

There's not room for a petri dish at all. I use some well slides that I made and pipette whatever it is out of the petri and into the depression on the slide. If you need that much room you'd be much better off looking for a dissection microscope.

FYI, I looked at the link again today and the price went back up to $184 and it's not a clearance item any longer...

["Umm, fish?"]

Which is funny, since it said last night that the retail price was $149.

I know that so pissed me off, At 1am it was still only $100 then at 6:30 this morning I went to order it and it was back up to 189. I should never of posted the link on multiple forums. They probably seen all the hits and jacked up the price. Ill check at 2am.
