Image
- Magnification Highest Power: 54 times (Highest magnification of a microscope is determined by multiplying the max power of the eyepiece lens by the max power of the corresponding objective lens.)
- Magnification Lowest Power: 1 times (Lowest magnification of a microscope is determined by multiplying the min power of the eyepiece lens by the min power of the corresponding objective lens.)
- Digital Camera Megapixels: 3.0 megapixels (Each pixel in a digital camera sensor captures image data relative to the light the object reflects. The more megapixels (a million pixels), the more detail that can be captured.)
