Small enough to fit in your pocket, but powerful enough to make an ant look the size of an antelope. This real microscope magnifies 30 times using precision optics! When you unfold the microscope, the light automatically illuminates the area in front of the lens, so that whether you are interested in nature studies, or crime-solving, this will be an invaluable companion! Includes sample slides and all you need to make your own slides. Works indoors and outdoors! The 14 page colour illustrated instruction booklet, written by nature expert Nick Baker, gives helpful hints about how to get a close-up view of just about anything, and suggests some fascinating subject matter. The information provided here is as complete and accurate as possible; however, product names, colours and/or materials are subject to change without notice.
