How do I choose between a compound and a stereo microscope?

A compound microscope suits thin, transparent specimens viewed at higher magnification, while a stereo microscope suits opaque, 3D specimens viewed at lower magnification for dissection or inspection work — check the specific product page for its intended use.

Do digital microscopes need a computer or separate screen?

This depends on the model — some units have a built-in LCD or computing system, others connect to an external screen or computer; check the specific product page for what is included.

Are prepared slides included with these microscopes?

Slides are generally sold separately; see LabEquip’s Prepared Slides range for ready-made specimen slides.

Do you supply microscopes for school and institutional tenders?

Yes — this range is supplied for bulk and tender orders and billed with a GST invoice; share your requirement with LabEquip at sales@thelabequipment.com.
