Knowing
your limits
The main things to remember when
using your microscope in handheld
mode are:
Know exactly how long the cable is.
If you can reach it, you can capture
it with the microscope.
Lighting automatically shifts to the
top in handheld mode, but you can
still adjust the brightness.
Use low magnification unless you
have plenty of light and can hold
the microscope steady.
Begin with the microscope within
an inch or two of what you are
looking at.
Focus is controlled by moving the
microscope closer to or farther
away from the specimen. Do this
slowly with small movements.

three things:
Hold the microscope with the

Moving the microscope to the right
is the same as moving a slide on
the sample platform to the left.
Moving the microscope toward you
is the same as moving a slide on
the sample platform away from you.
