Absolutely brill timing, I've been trying to figure out exactly this sort of question, trying to pick from amongst the semi-infinite number of low(ish)-cost video microscopes out there, and you've answered so many questions I had including one I didn't even realise I had! (The boom arm modification in particular.) Thanks so much!
it's only a small sample. but I bet a lot of the cheap ones are the same as this digilife on the inside. I have used this adsm301 for work and after a months use happy to say I like it and would recommend.
one like this www.amazon.co.uk/Microphone-TONOR-Adjustable-Suspension-T20/dp/B082YN7KY9/ref=sr_1_9?crid=1SGZX1YWB4TZQ&keywords=mic+boom+arm&qid=1667558355&qu=eyJxc2MiOiI1LjA5IiwicXNhIjoiNC41NSIsInFzcCI6IjQuMzAifQ%3D%3D&sprefix=mic+boom+arm%2Caps%2C94&sr=8-9
Unfortunately, my microphone arm does not have the same thread as the microscope. what are the dimensions of the thread of the microscope so that I can buy an adapter, otherwise I cannot use the microscope on the microphone arm. Best regards.
Nice review ^^ I have a ADSM302 with the exact same stand and power cable, and as I repair some large PCBs I encounter the exact same issues. For your information, you can stream the microscope video if you plug it to a computer and use OBS or other stream software. To achieve that, do not use the cable shown in your video, it is a power only cable, use the other USB cable provided.
Hi Lee, Thanks for the great review. Just got one and I was wondering, could you please help me with the 3d file so i can print the mount you showed for my desk mic stand ? You mentioned a link in your comments but dont see it. Much appreciated
@@leesmithsworkshop I got the adsm301. Ordered some standard deskmic arm but want to also move the lights over to it. But i thought if i got that 3d file i could adapt it in fusion360 a bit to fit this one . Should be pretty similar
Man I literally brought this Microscope & the boom arm to go with it & the boom arm screw/thread is too big for the microscope wtf do I do now? Be careful anyone using this as a guide to buy what you need as I am now stuck in a pickle.

Brilliant. I've been looking at the Andonstar and it looks great for the money.
I am very happy with mine.
Great review, many thanks! I think I may well have to treat myself... 😀
i have amazon links if you're in the uk or usa
glad it can go on a boom arm. getting chunky retro pcbs under there would (and appeared to be) problematic. Nice review!
I had made a 3d printed adapter for the Digilife so I was very happy to see the threaded mount on the back.
I brought the microscope & a boom arm because of this video & the boom arm screw/thread is too big for the microscope. Buyer beware.
Could you please post link to your mic boom arm? What screw size the boom arm uses?

I just encountered this issue today & no one can tell me thread either or how to fix my problem. How did you fix it???

HI, I did look and it's only 720p when used with a PC so I would use it with my HDMI capture to stream.
