The Achiever stereo inspection microscope (could be properly
termed a “macroscope”) is ideal for 3-D viewing of objects such as artifacts,
mineral specimens, fossils, insects, coins, stamps, and more.
The lighted base does also allow viewing of some
of the larger transparent, slide-mounted objects--insect wings, for example--
by transmitted light (to view cells, protozoans, etc.., one needs a biological microscope).
Specifications:
• 10x wide-field (30 mm) eyepieces
• Binocular head rotates 360 degrees
• Acid & chemical-resistant finish
• Reversible black/white stage plate
• 10x/30x (or 20x/40x*) magnification
• Dual, built-in illumination sources
• Lifetime manuf. warranty
(excludes bulbs and fuses)
The Achiever has the same, high-quality optics and acid-resistant finish
as the Paragon, but it also includes dual, built-in illumination. The unit
plugs into standard 115 VAC wall current.

The Achiever is very popular with hobbyists and schools alike, thanks
to its low cost, high quality, and built-in lighting. For micromineral studies,
we still recommended purchasing an inexpensive, white-LED lamp or a fiber
optic illuminator (not included) to provide the strong light/shadow contrast
for viewing tiny crystals.
This microscope is available with either a 1x/3x or a 2x/4x turret, for
an effective magnification of 10x/30x or 20x/40x, respectively. Additionally,
a pair of 15x eyepieces ($56) can be purchased for this scope, allowing
for either 15x/45x or 30x/60x overall magnification.
* unit comes with either a 1x/3x or a 2x/4x objective; please
specify when ordering.
