The main difference is the holding mechanism. The one I use is very good but also very old. Mine have non-zoom magnification of 6x, 10x, 16x, 25x I think, and this is more than enough for what I do. If I were to buy something for my darkroom I would buy the same type of microscope as what you are looking at. Also, it would be a good tool to look through a large number of 35mm/MF negatives as well. -- Ryuji Suzuki "Keep a good head and always carry a light camera." ============================================================================================================= To unsubscribe from this list, go to www.freelists.org and logon to your account (the same e-mail address and password you set-up when you subscribed,) and unsubscribe from there.
