In the show, they always have some really cool centrifuge, DNA sequencer, or HPLC chromatography machine that they use to help with their sample analysis. We here at RainyDayMagazine are HUGE fans of the CBS TV show CSI.

Check with us in a few weeks to see what new discoveries we have made now that we have this new instrument at our disposal. We are particularly interested in seeing whether we can capture some interesting digital movies of the microscopic world. In the FirstUse review, we'll try out all the different available functions and capabilities of this QX5 digital microscope. There was also a compartment in the base to store some of the tools and speciment containers. The staging unit has a built-in light source to illuminate from underneath. Unlike a standard microscope, the QX5 can be used freehand or in combination with its staging unit. There is also an white LED built into the electronics unit. The lowest setting is 10X and the max is 200X. To get a closer look, there is a ring which rotates lens into place for different magnifications. Instead, it has a sensor which digitizes the image and output that data to a computer for display. The QX5 digital microscope, unlike a standard light microscopes, has no eye piece. The electronics portion of the microscope contains the optics, sensing elements, and cable to connect to the computer. The QX5 microscope was composed of two pieces, the electronics and the stage. The Digital Blue QX5 Microscope package came with the scope, stage, driver software, and all we needed to collect speciments for observation and examination.
