How to choose a repair microscope
Stereo vs. trinocular. Both give a 3D view for soldering; a trinocular adds a third port for a camera to record or stream your work.
Working distance. Leave enough space under the lens for tools and hot air. Barlow lenses (0.5X, 0.7X) increase the working distance and field of view.
Lighting. An LED ring light gives even, shadow-free illumination.
Digital microscopes and 4K cameras are useful for inspection and documenting repairs.
FAQ
What magnification do I need for microsoldering?
Most phone board work is done at roughly 7X to 45X zoom on a stereo microscope; higher magnification helps with inspection.
What is a trinocular microscope?
A stereo microscope with a third port for mounting a camera, so you can view or record the image on a screen.
What does a Barlow lens do?
It changes magnification and working distance. A 0.5X Barlow, for example, roughly doubles the working distance and widens the field of view.
