Do I have to use a phone, or can I look through the microscope?

The choice is yours! The MicroFlip offers dual functionality. You can directly observe specimens through the microscope, or you can opt to use the smartphone adapter clip to capture images and videos with your phone for documentation and sharing.

Is the Carson MicroFlip recommended for beginners or professionals?

How do I get the best image when focusing with this portable microscope?
