Thanks for your feedback
Disappointment, even at the $90 + shipping I paid for it. Good focus and clarity at 20x, but only with very high contrast (white on black) is the resolution any better--and then only very slightly better--at higher power, because the clarity/attainable focus drops as much as the magnification goes up. With lower contrast subjects one gets much better resolution at 20x than 60x! And what the Vivitar web site won't tell is that despite the fact that they're based in California, the unit is made in China.
