Celestron will unfold its new LCD Digital Microscope at the CES'08. The microscope is designed with a perspective of expanding it to the masses. The microscope tends to minimize operators efforts by replacing the traditional eyepiece with a high-resolution 3.5” (88mm) LCD screen. With 40x as the maximum magnification level it features a built in 2MP digital camera, 4X digital zoom functionality, 128MB of internal storage and LED illumination for precise observation.

Joseph A. Lupica Jr., president and CEO of Celestron remarks “With the flexibility to not only view, but capture photos and video of both prepared slides and everyday objects through the seamlessly integrated 3.5” viewing screen, the LDM is an amazing all-in-one product that will keep users captivated as the physical world is revealed like never before.”

The Celestron LCD Digital Microscope will be available for sale in February '08 at the local stores for a price of $299.99.
