Lomo stereoscope - LOMO SF-100 Stereo Microscope (MBC-10) Ground

The LOMO has superb optical quality and is easy to use. It also is very height adjustable, such that it could be used for closely examining shoes or bricks, if you work with objects that large. The finish of the metal parts isn't up to Japanese or Euro stds., but this is a cosmetic issue. Many parts arrived dirty, including lenses. Nothing was hard to clean, but we're used to new products being more or less perfect. A setscrew was found rattling around in the binocular head. Stock illumination is marginally adequate. It will be my first upgrade.
Pros: Excellent optical quality. Very easy to use.
Cons: Fit and finish
