These work well optically. Right level of zoom, easy to focus in with.

But they are cheap pieces of junk, and they fall apart. Next time I order I'm ordering like a dozen of them. For now I'm holding mine barely together with some aluminum tape.

Much better. You can put this thing right on the leaf of a plant and see what's going on. I bought one about a year ago from Hong Kong and then ordered two more for backup.

You can do this with the shack one too, the trick is to remove the plastic light guard and look at a piece of erb or leaf on a table, not looking at the plant itself.

Works fine for me, was a total pain before i removed the plastic bit and hard surface thing.

Got mine in the mail today.

Just what I expected as far as quality of build, and works better than I expected.

Nice little POS

I have the 45x model, works great. Got mine here in Cali from local vendor on ebay for around $5 shipped.

I have the 45x model also

But i cannot see my trics good at all

I can see all the hairs and the cloudiness at the bottom of the hairs

but i cant see the trics on the leaves that are under the hairs

just the shininess of them

Herein lies the difference. Plastic guard or not, a sample has to be removed from a plant and placed elsewhere. Not so with this little sucker. One can aim it right at a given area on the plant, itself.
