How to use

Install one AA battery, unfold the flip-down slide base and place your specimen on the starter slide or directly on the base if appropriate. Adjust the position of the aspheric lens to achieve focus and switch on the LED illumination or UV flashlight as required for your inspection. To capture images or video, attach the smartphone digiscoping clip over your phone’s camera, align the lens with the microscope eyepiece, open your phone’s camera app and record or photograph the magnified subject.

Recommendations

For best results, use thin, clean slides and avoid thick protective phone cases when attaching the digiscoping clip; remove bulky cases if alignment is difficult. Use the UV flashlight only as directed and avoid direct eye exposure. Store the MicroFlip dry and remove the battery during long-term storage to prevent corrosion.
