This student microscope boasts the features of more expensive, full-sized microscopes - coarse and fine focus, inclined rotating head and excellent optics
The Student SKope comes with a 110V, 15W illuminator installed (a mirror is included if you do not wish to use the illuminator). The new Student SKope comes with an illuminator and a moveable stage that allows students to shift the whole stage to move the slide and viewing area. This model is ideal for younger users who may have difficulty moving the slide especially when using high power. Both models are perfect introductory microscopes for beginning biology students in elementary or middle school. Both come with a vinyl dust cover and our Boreal Microscope Teachers' Manual.
