Jose,
The brand names you suggest are all junk. You should buy a used Zeiss
(Opton), E. Leitz or Leica, Olympus or Nikon. I know that there are
several dealers in Germany that sell quality used 'scopes. You could
talk to you local hospital about how they get rid of their old
equipment, that could be a real help.
Thanks,

Hi all.
I am new at this forum so I think It would be needed a little
introduction of myself.
My name is Jose and I am Spanish. I studied Biology at university many
years ago, 12, but is not my profession. Despite all I am still
interested in all related with Biology so I want to spend my free time
studiying the small life that could be seen through a microscope. I
want to buy a compound microscope but I am not sure what to buy. I saw
several catalogs (Motic, Meade, Optika) and despite the look is quite
impressive I don't feel sure those scopes will have the mechanical and/
or optical quality I spect... and you know, I don't want to be
disapointed after spent a good sum of money. I should say that I want
to use the microscope for photomicrography (actualy I do
macrophotography) so I need one that deliver good image quality.
And now the most important... my budget. Righ now I could spend 1000
or 1500?, but in the future I could make other inversions to buy
accesories. What I am sure about is that I want a trinocular one
because I don't want to be moving around with the camera. I own a
Nikon D70 and a D300. Is it possible to get some decent microscope for
that money. If so what brands and models shoud I take in
consideration? and as important... where to buy to be sure that I am
not be scammed?. I live in Spain and I would like buy here but I don't
think there are many places to buy second had microscopes in Spain. In
case I would had to buy it abroad I would like to do in Europe...
there are no borders or customs to pass through (extra taxes). If you
could help me about any of my doubts or any other I didn't take in
consideration I will be really grateful. Thanks in advance.
Sorry for my bad English and if I couldn't respond until the next
saturday... I don't have internet access at home.
