The Basic ProScope Kits are USB handheld digital microscopes designed for use with your computer. Each kit comes with a 50x lens and a base, which has a universal lens mount and a 1.3 (HR) or 5 (HR5) megapixel CMOS sensor.
The ProScope is a powerful addition to any classroom. Each Basic kit includes software that allows you to capture still images, time lapse photography, and movies. You can also use our award-winning Logger Pro software (sold separately) to add images to an experiment or lab report to illustrate a concept. Other lenses and accessories are available.
