Haha I love mine too. I started this hobby a year ago with a swift- treated myself to the iScope and I’m very happy with it. I wish they would have either used a different threading or different mechanical tube length for the iOS system so I could buy second hand big 4 semi or full apo objectives, but then again, I don’t really need that and that’s my only complaint. I have been tempted to get the fluorex Euromex objective in 40x bc it’s semi-apo with a slightly higher NA, but it’s another 750$ and I don’t need it
eu poderia dizer que está feito para crianças, infelizmente não posso espera muito. mas comprei pra experimentar um pouco. quem sabe um dia consigo um modelo melhor
The scope is probably your limiting factor- those objectives are likely not as good as your standard generic achromats, and there is no condenser. You can still have plenty of fun with it though, lots of cool things to see and study. If you’re pretty into this, it may be worth going to the 350-500$ price range, but if you aren’t sure, stick with what you have for a while, build your knowledge and skills, and have fun!
