Does this otoscope have any magnification?

yes-it works great but don't use the little plastictips they scratch the inside of the ear

Yes, enough magnification to perfrom an autoscope examI am a physician so I can use, plus recommend to patientsI wish though it would accept easier the tips from Welch Allyn

No it has 0 magnification. it is simply a holographic project on a piece of clear meium. there is nothing that requires adjustment

Yes, it does have a ZOOM function. It has six settings; three to enlarge and three to reduce. I did not notice any distortion at all.

15x magnification min and 40x magnification max. My low-budget binoculars are 10x magnification and the image is much crisper and seemed to be as magnified as the scope. I would not suggest this scope...

1X magnification is no magnification. The scale starts at 1 power or unmagnified. This optic is zero magnification.

There is a indentation about mid way through the device. You'll see a series of parallel vertical striations of sorts moving from left To right. That is your magnification knob. It's really my only complaint about the device. It should've been a digital zoom.

No. There is a slight magnification that helps with making text / images clear. Sort-of like reading glasses, but not quite as extreme. I have 20/20 vision, and can use them just fine.

Yes it has the fine focus knob which makes it very easy to focus in with ease and accuracy. A very well made microscope!

No there is no magnifier. We put this on our Hawk 981-R and it works great.

No magnification. I sent mine back. You can get dual zone magnification for $30 or so from other vendors.

No. Additionally, the magnifying lens is placed too low to be useable. Don't buy it.

I am just guessing but I assume it is 2 and 1/2 magnification; I have one of these and the cord that you put around your neck can be adjusted to bring your work into focus so I wouldn't worry about it. I love mine! Well worth the money!

No. The magnifier can adjust to center in the field of view of the magnifier whatever is being magnified.

sorry have not had mine long enough to answer that. but i will tell you that the magnification is not what i expected.would have sent it back but my husband 'hard wired' it and i did not have the heart to tell him i was not happy with it. don't buy it!

The level of magnification is about 2x. Remember that this is just a cheap alternative to Zacuto.

No, not unless you already have a magnifier. Cheaply made, I do not recommend!

I have not measured out any area to view with the scope, so I can not be certain. As the mount for this device is not particularly great I usually end up putting the plastic ring around what I intend to view & zoom in to focus. Is it possible to take 1 cm2 shots with it, likely yes though you will have to experiment with focal lengths to get the magnification & field of view that you want. This device is more of a toy than a piece of lab equipment mainly due to the iffy base & the magnification dial's placement. If something more lab grade that is what you are looking for I recommend a more typical microscope such as this one: http://www.amazon.com/iOptron-ST-80-Digital-Microscope/dp/B0032VFC84/ref=fs_patw_1 It has higher magnification, a backlight, & multiple objective lenses. I hope this was helpful.
