This is pretty cool. When things pop up on bb like this, without a price, I try to guess what it might be. I was off by quite a bit. It’s pretty affordable.

I should start using mine. I have this one from the now gone Maplins here in the uk. :slightly_smiling_face:

I have this exact model. My only problem with it is that the clear plastic bezel (or whatever you call it) at the tip cracked when I tried to get too close to something.

I have this and I too took a pic of my computer monitor!

I don’t have the other pics handy, sorry. They are on the computer that isn’t working right now.

I will say DO NOT start taking pics of your body. It is super gross close up.

LOL, that was one of the first things I did. I saved the eyeball pic and one of my fingertip, deleted the rest

No one wants unsolicited dick pics, and definitely not at 500x magnification…

WHOA! I did NOT go there :man_facepalming:

I once struggled to figure out a way to send a pic to my doctor of an…unfortunately placed tick bite. Let’s just say that sometimes judicious use of magnification is the only way to avoid a dick pic…
