Pros & Cons
Pros
The kit comes with eyepiece cups and a heavy, plastic dust cover. The alignment of the stereo oculars seems to be quite good. It's worth the full $1600 sticker price.
The amscope is every bit as good, if not better, than some of the more expensive olympias and bausch & lomb stuff. Amazon even suggests adding these two items to your purchase.
The boom stand is ideal for accomodating a variety of work set up. It makes working on small electronics a breeze. It is more than a casual microscope. Indispensable for modern electronic assembly.
The included led illuminator is an unexpected blessing. The intensity is controlled by a knob mounted on the side. The led ring light comes with a dimmer.
Cons
I don’t like that on my amscope device there is no where on it that shows that’s branded.

Amscope is best adviser in this area
I used similar more expensive units in my university research career and if there is a difference i cant see it except cost
