30x magnification field lens


What is this good for?

These are amazing for seeing anything up close! Fibres, insect eggs, the hooks that allow seeds to be animal dispersed, the print of a newspaper, the cracks in your skin.. the list is as endless as your child's fascination! Great for keeping kids entertained at a café table, on a train ride, hours of exploration on holiday without adding bulk to your luggage....


Why this particular field lens?

This is not your usual field lens. I have used many different lenses with students over the years and most never last long. They soon become loose, rivets come undone, screws get lost, they quickly become useless. I wanted field lenses that could cope with being outdoors, that could be simply tightened when they become loose and wouldn't easily rust. Finally, I found these.

German-made, high magnification with a good quality lens, made of aluminium alloy so they're lightweight but robust, easily tightened. These are the only field lenses I would recommend.


Specification:

30x magnification field lens

Aluminium alloy casing

Glass lens

weight (unpackaged) ~17.7g

One field lens in cardboard box


What goes well with this?

Petri dishes

Pipettes

Forceps

Pocket microscope

Dual light microscope


Top tips!

Ensure these are stored fully dry. Tighten with a small screwdriver if they ever start to feel a little loose. Keep in a cloth pouch (just cut the toe off an old sock) and have one in your bag / pocket wherever you go. Great for keeping kids entertained at a café table, on a train ride, hours of exploration on holiday without adding bulk to your luggage....
