Hi Hermann, You can find som alternatives here: http://www.mueller-optronic.com Look under digital microscopes... BTW it is a german company :-) I don’t have experience with their digital microscopes but I use one of their less expensive Model Expert-Boom-T with a 5M px camera connected to my PC (I need to reduce the no. of pixels to reduce latency when working without glasses) It works very good for the rework I need to do. I can recommend to buy an extra barlow lens to get more working distance and to protect the microscope.
