National Geographic 40-640x Microscope With Smartphone Adapter

Curiosity takes centre stage with this National Geographic beginner’s microscope, a monocular transmitted-light model offering 40x to 640x magnification and a smartphone adapter for capturing observations. Its traditional microscope layout includes a three-lens turret for quick magnification changes, a focusing system and built-in LED illumination with a daylight option, making it a practical introduction to microscopy for children aged 8 years and over.

Prepared for immediate use, it comes with a broad starter set for early specimen study and simple experiments, including prepared slides, blank slides with labels and cover plates, sample tools and 2 AA batteries. The height-adjustable stage includes slide clamps and a diaphragm wheel to control the light beam, while battery operation allows flexible placement without relying on mains power.
