Olympus BH2


In this current research I will eventually have to conduct genetic analyses of the soil microbiome, but I'm a bit insecure about having punched in ZERO hours at the lab (yes, I'm a lab virgin). I only know in theory how microscopes work, what beautiful images they make possible before our eyes, but never looked down the barrel of an Olympus, or heck, even a Bresser.

As an aspiring microbiologist still at a gamete stage - I'm not even born yet - I thought I should make the effort of familiarising myself with one of the oldest and most powerful companion of a microbe researcher. Microscope!

What do you do when you have all the passion but absolutely no knowledge on the subject?
1. Read your textbook.
2. Start a random google search in frenzy.
3. Ask Reddit.

So I did all three, and it seems that the below beauty might be the best option for me.

One thing for certain is that if I buy this, and somehow the seller can actually ship it to where I am, I'd better make it worth the cost by permanently glueing one of my eyeballs to it. The equipment is so damn expensive, I have to make every dime count o_O

Perhaps essentially the most important factor prompting younger people’s disillusionment is the lack of affordable housing.
