4.3 Switching Lenses (W and L)
The microscope comes with two magnetic lenses: the W (Wide-Angle) lens and the L (Long-Distance) lens. To switch lenses, gently pull the currently attached lens downward to detach it, then align and attach the desired lens. No tools are required.
- W Wide-Angle Lens: Ideal for full-frame views of larger objects like coins, jewelry, or specimens, capturing fine details across a broader area.
- L Long-Distance Lens: Provides an expanded working space, making it perfect for tasks requiring tools, such as PCB soldering or micro soldering. It offers clear, high-magnification imaging for precise work.

4.5 Recording and Capturing Images
The microscope supports recording videos and capturing still images directly to a microSD card (64GB included). Use the menu options to access these functions. Ensure the microSD card is properly inserted and formatted if you encounter issues saving files.
5. Maintenance
- Cleaning: Use a soft, dry cloth to clean the microscope body and screen. For lenses, use a specialized lens cleaning cloth and solution to avoid scratches.
- Storage: Store the microscope in a clean, dry environment away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.
- Lens Care: Handle lenses carefully. Avoid touching the optical surfaces with bare hands.
6. Troubleshooting
- No image on screen:
- Ensure the microscope is powered on and all cables are securely connected. Check the focus and zoom settings. If using an external display, verify the HDMI/USB connection and input source on the display.
- Images appear blurry or out of focus:
- Adjust the focus knob on the microscope. Ensure the object is within the optimal working distance for the currently attached lens (L or W). Clean the lens if smudges are visible.
- Cannot save images/videos to microSD card:
- Verify that the microSD card is correctly inserted. Try reformatting the card through the microscope's menu (this will erase all data). If the issue persists, try a different microSD card.
- Lights are not working:
- Check the power connection. Ensure the light control knob is rotated to increase brightness. Verify that the gooseneck lights are securely connected to the microscope unit.
