PocketScopes® are truly pocket-sized, portable, serious microscopes. They do not require electrical power or dedicated facilities. A whole classroom supply of 30 PocketScopes® (in their fitted 10 unit cases) takes up only about a foot of space on a bookshelf. PocketScopes® are ergonomically versatile, since they are not tied to a desk or laboratory bench. Carry them in a pocket or on a neck lanyard for field use.

The PocketScope® focus mechanism is simple and precise, never needing maintenance. Once you've got something in view you want to share, lock the Slide Guide™ in position and hand your PocketScope® to someone else. They'll see what you wanted them to see.

Slides are held inside the PS-150, for safety! Using a PocketScope® is as simple as snapping the slide into the Slide Guide™, closing the PocketScope®, looking through the PocketScope® eyepiece at a light source (like using a camera viewfinder), and focusing by turning the large knurled focus wheel. The PocketScope® controls are ambidextrous... We don't penalize lefties!
