From the Manufacturer
The Meade 9400 Microscope is just the right scientific tool for young students or adult hobbyists. As a serious tool for the amateur scientist, the Meade Model 9400 presents a microscopic world of unimagined complexity and variation.

The Model 9400 is a microscope that will grow with the user's expanding interests in microscopy.

Three large, professional-size objective lenses (4x, 10x, and 40x) are mounted on a rotating turret, while the precision coarse-and-fine rack-and-pinion focuser permits sharp focusing of the image even at the highest powers.

• Slide set with 5 prepared slides and 5 blank slides

Customer Reviews

Not everything i expected.
i am very familiar to microscopes but this one is very painful. it does not give the sufficient ammount of light because it contains a mirror, the microscopes with lamps in them are way better. other than that the microscope is pretty good with the lenses but i wouldnt waste my money on this.
