## Long description

Carson zPix 300 is a compact USB digital microscope offering variable magnification from 86x up to 457x (effective magnification on a 21" monitor). The device measures 129.5 mm in height and weighs 138.9 g. It connects to a computer via the included USB cable and uses a 2-megapixel sensor with a zoom capability to produce detailed still images and close-focus video on a connected computer screen. The microscope can be used with or without its base attachment: the base supports viewing prepared slides while removing it allows handheld or surface-level inspection of objects. The zPix 300 is compatible with Windows (Windows 10/8/8.1/7/Vista/XP SP2+) and Mac OS and requires a USB 2.0/3.0 port.
Advantages

The included USB connection enables direct display and capture on a computer, and the 2-megapixel sensor supports image and video capture for analysis or record keeping. The removable base increases versatility by allowing both slide-based observation and freehand examination of larger or irregular objects. Cross-platform compatibility with common Windows and Mac OS systems simplifies setup and use.

How to use
Connect the zPix 300 to a computer using the supplied USB cable and install any required drivers or software for your operating system.

Usage recommendations
For reliable imaging, use a stable surface when operating without the base and ensure adequate lighting for high-magnification viewing.
