    Could someone offer me some advise on purchasing a stereo microscope for SMD
    work. I have tried all of the little hand held things and it isn't working
    out. Before I make a mistake and buy something that I think is right for
    the job maybe someone can point out the features to look out for and the
    best places to buy from. I guess I need it one on a boom stand to check
    chips on bigger boards. Should I buy a fix mag lens if so do I need 10X,
    20X 40X? Is that to much? Should I us a variable. What about lighting.
    Will a florescent ring be ok or should I use halogen. Anything else to look
    out for. EBay has some from under $100.00 without the boom and starting at
    $300.00 with a boom. Any regrets from owners of these things. Any must
    have's.

    Thanks for all the help
    Russ
