10x is a joke, i mean i even think 30x is a joke but thats more personal opinion than anything else since with 30x you can almost see good enough to tell how much your trichs are amber but when you go 100x you can really tell what your lookin at and when you wanna pull em Its especially nice because if you know the ripening characteristics of your plant (ie. how fast it ripens) you can lay out your schedule a lil better because you can actually see how much of the trich is milky or amber compared to just kinda being able to see. I have the radio shack scope it works great i just wish the light was brighter like the 420 scope almost makes it seem worth it to me to spend the extra money because that bright white led is the shit. But if you grow inside i like the zorb cause you can bring your laptop right into the room with u and take pics too if you want lol nice suggestion on that one daddio

+ Rep my Blueberry Dwarf is almost ready i will have pics up the day it gets here
I was worried the 30x wouldnt be enough myself But i purchased a 420 Scope when i first started growing. I want the Zorb more for Tric pics and it will be a bit easier then that damn 420 scope i find that thing a pain in the ass especially if you want to take a pic.
Just like you said this way i can just take my laptop with me or clip a few leaves and easily check them out/take pics and show the RIU world.
Anyway heres my crappy pics i tried to take with my Loupe and my 420 Scope none of them are near as good as the Zorb could do
As you can see i got a few good shots but nothing compaired to Daddios pics

is it auto focusing or can you manually adjust the focus when u take the picture because some of the trichs i wanted to see in those pictures were washed out cause the camera was focused on somthing behind it if you know what i mean.

I have a zOrb that says x65 and I have a handheld regular scope. You BETTER HAVE A STEADY hand to see much in the zOrb. and it is more like x45 ...I use my cheap hand held for Trichomes - the zOrb is good for insects - just does not get close enough to tell between clear and milky
