Great microscope, not so great for PCBs
I bought this specifically to do soldering work on PCBs and it sorta works for that, but you have to zoom in really close to see useful details...but at that point it can be tough to maneuver the soldering iron in that space. And at that zoom the field of view isn't the best, as you have to move the board a lot for things to stay in focus.
BUT for the price this thing is awesome. My kids love it because they can take the microscope out of the stand and run around the house and yard magnifying stuff to incredible levels of detail. And it works well for some of my other hobbies that don't require as high a zoom.
I haven't been able to get video on my PC but I have on my Surface Pro. So clearly it works but the software/drivers are finicky, and the included program is basically useless.
