USB Microscope QX5

I bought a $75 microscope yesterday to look at our local algae with.

This is digital scope with a usb cable that works well with my mac. I

did buy a piece of $15 software called miXscope to take pictures,

make movies, make measurements, add subtitles, and draw on the

screen. The scope does not take very good 60x and 200x photos out of

the box due to a low power LED backlight. After fifteen minutes of

getting frustrated I took the toy apart and added a 1 watt white LED

and now I've been getting some great results.
