Andonstar AD407 Pro 3D HDMI Soldering Digital Microscope with Pro Metal Stand 4MP UHD and 7 inch Adjustable LCD Screen USB Video Microscopes for Phone Repairing SMT SMD DIY

The microscope, camera, and screen work very well. But I don't like the stand. It does not go as high as I would like, and every time I need to reposition it I have to loosen and tighten some screws.So I bought an Elgato Wave Mic Arm Premium: https://www.amazon.com/Elgato-Wave-Mic-Arm-Broadcasting/dp/B09737ZXMK At first I thought I would need to make an adapter to use the wave mic arm with the microscope. But it just so happens that the Elgato arm uses the same screw thread as the microscope mount! (see photo).With the above mentioned modification it is much easier to position the scope wherever I want. It saves a lot of time and greatly extends the vertical range.

Handy.

After months of agonizing over not having a better microscope and being unable to justify dropping over $600 on a higher-end interchangeable-lens/autofocus camera setup + a Barlow lens, I decided to buy this as it seemed to tick all the boxes for my needs a few of my wants. Overall, I was impressed with the picture quality, but part of me still missed the high-end optics and auto-focus.Then, thanks to another reviewer (props RCJad!), I decided to add the Xit XT30WAB 30mm 0.43X Wide Angle Lens ($11.40 on Amazon) and it's made the AD407 so much better. The XT30WAB lens brings a slightly wider to see more of the PCB and it has a Depth-of-Field (DoF) of approximately 1 inch/25 mm, making PCB requiring far less refocusing while you work! Now, I can see the PCB *and* my tools, tall components, etc. while I work. Now I can tilt a PCB to inspect it WITHOUT constantly refocusing or shifting the board up and down. I'd still love to have autofocus, but with this DoF, I don't really need/miss it most of the time. (Andonstar - You need to sell these or similar as your own so buyers don't have to research them on their own.)Keep in mind, even with the additional lens, the AD407 isn't going to compete for with a $600+ microscope with interchangeable lenses, a larger/taller stand and a camera with autofocus, but this is half the cost, a great formfactor for a workbench, has a very nice display built-in and it works really well for all but really large PCBs. Just get a wide-angle/macro lens and you'll enjoy it a whole lot more.Note: There are also mods that people do mount these cameras to microphone stands/arms to allow you to raise them higher or work on larger PCBs (large motherboards, arcade PCBs, retro computer repair, etc.). It does require some rewiring of the LED lights, however.

Really good resolution for the price, stand is good. Only negative is removing the memory card can be a challenge

I wasn't expecting a lot for the price, but was pleasantly surprised. I use this for electronic circuit inspection (and other random things in the lab). Has HDMI output and writes images to a standard memory card. The lights do get really hot if you leave them on, but they're very bright, and thus very useful.

Love this scope, for soldering and working on small electronics, it is super useful. I paired it with a nice wide angle lens.

I use this all the time. The video quality is awesome! The size is perfect for the repairs that I bought it for. It’s very versatile, use it with my kids to see textures of other materials. The magnification range is good and the ease of use is exceptional. The performance exceeds my expectations.

Very nice zoom for working on pocket watches looking at rare coins and for soldering. It doesn't come with an SD card what you need to take pictures and save them.
