Microscope
Video Camera - Video Labs Teach - Flex Cam
The Flex Cam is simple and a lot of fun to use.
The flexible neck allows you to place the camera onto any type of
microscope or use as a free standing camera (without microscope).
Just point the camera to the object that you want to show onto a television
screen for the entire class to see. You can even video tape the image
and it has a built in microphone; make a movie about your algae or
bugs. The base lights up for use without a microscope and the unit
will focus centimeters away from an object. The camera
comes in a wooden box with clear setup directions. This would
be great for macroinvertebrate identification labs, dissecting labs,
bacteria work (especially colony counting), algae work. The television
is not included. |
