TOMLOV DM9 7″ LCD Digital Microscope 1200X, 1080P Coin Microscope…

Works great!
Easy to use and ha old a good charge. Has great magnification. Dimmable light on lens makes it easier to focus.

Pretty decent for beginners, though overpriced
It isn’t bad overall. It has a pretty good picture and is very easy to set up and use out of the box. I can not say whether or not it can actually zoom to 1200x, but certainly not in its current design. More on that later. I got this for coin hunting. This scope does well for beginners like myself. However, there are many things I would change.Magnification:Pros – it has a wide range and great picture. Zoom is two tiered and simple to use. It is very easy to zoom in and out in small incrementsCons – The riser is short and does not allow a wide field of view when all the way up. It makes it difficult to capture an entire coin on screen. When zoomed in all the way, the lens protector is in the way of further magnification or subject manipulation.I would replace the riser with a taller piece. A shorter lens protector would allow more zoom as well.I used basswood to raise everything 5 inches and it gave me a lot more versatility when needed.Lighting:Pros – The lighting is very bright, perhaps too bright. The additional lights can be helpful.Cons – A backlight or some other indirect lighting would give less glare and more natural illumination. The flexible conduit is a little difficult to position, and could be a few inches longer for positioning. They are very bright when it comes to additional lighting, and opaque lenses would be very helpful.I added masking tape to soften and spread the light which reduced glare a lot for better pictures.Additional: The aluminum plate is nice, but it is too reflective for the lighting. A black foam rubber mat like the one I added would be a big help.Connectivity and controls:The remote is simple and easy to use. A longer cord would be great, cordless would be even better. Touchscreens are extremely inexpensive, and would help make this a better buy.The main buttons on the display might be better on the top.I connected the microscope directly to my laptop and was given the choice of mass storage access, charging, or PC camera. However, I have not yet found a way to switch between the three without unplugging the USB cable – which turns off the microscope. On the plus side, with the Windows camera app taking the pictures I can quickly move the pictures to where I need them without messing with the SD card.This microscope isn’t a bad option, especially for a first unit in hobbies. It performs well and is easy to use. But there are several inexpensive ways this could be improved to make it worth the purchase price.

Great digital microscope. Exceeded expectations.
I purchased this digital microscope for my university lectures where I am simultaneously teaching students in class and via Zoom. The USB function is a real plus. I was able to plug this in, and during a Zoom meeting, switch from my webcam to the microscope with no problem. This allowed students in class to watch what I was doing on the projection screen while students at home could watch on their computer screens, all with excellent resolution. The ability to take pictures or video with the microscope at the click of a button is a real added bonus.The microscope is very impressive for the price. It is relatively small and easy to pack and carry in the original box. I can set it up or take it down in about 2 minutes. The additional side lighting helps to produce shadows or provide illumination to your very tiny subject matter. Yesterday, I was teaching about the “placoid scales” of sharks. These scales are more like teeth than fish scales. Although you can readily feel them on shark skin, you cannot see them with the naked eye. This microscope showed them in far better detail than I had hoped.The 7″ screen is like a very large cell phone or a small tablet. This is plenty big enough for soldering circuits, grading coins, etc. If you want it big, you can always project it onto a 100″ screen (which is what I do in class). The digital functions of the microscope (lighting levels, exposure compensation, timer, camera functions, etc.) can be controlled with buttons on the screen or the wired remote.The rechargeable 18650 rechargeable battery is fairly common. While you can plug your microscope into a USB block to charge, I actually have a dozen of these batteries and external charger for my SCUBA lights. The battery lasts for about 3 hours and (if the battery ever dies) you can pick up a few extras on Amazon for relatively little money.Bottom line, although this may not be laboratory grade equipment, it does produce similar results and at a fraction of the cost. It does feel a bit like a toy, but it’s hard to argue with the results. I’m far more impressed with this unit than I hoped. Time will tell how durable it is, but for now, I’m super happy I purchased the TOMLOV.Pictures included are of shark skin scales and close ups of a $1 bill. The last photo is the closest/most magnification I could get and still be able to focus. These are photos directly from the microscope.

Looks and works as it seems in the pictures. Kinda cheap plastics, but as you would expect at the price of $100-$150. It’s got that hollow plastic like feel to it, but simply works.

I purchased this as an upgrade to my Kkmoon 4.5″ digital microscope. As I am now doing more and more SMD soldering, I wanted a larger screen. Also, the keypad on the TOMLOV, which allows the easy taking of photos/videos, is really useful to me, as I like to keep photographic records of repairs that I have done. What I wasn’t expecting was the added image clarity I now get due to the anti-reflection cover. Viewing a PCB I had previously worked on with the cover installed was a HUGE difference. Super clear. Even when I added flux, which usually increases glare. I am very pleased with my purchase. All I need now is a longer USB charger lead than the one supplied to power the unit for long soldering sessions.

En mai 2023, j’ai acheté un microscope TOMOLOV DM9, très pratique pour les numismates en herbe.Un dimanche d’octobre de la même année, l’ordinateur ne le reconnaissait plus en USB. J’ai alors envoyé un mail et surprise, le service après-vente TOMOLOV me répondait en suivant avoir pris en considération ma demande et m’assurait de revenir vers moi dès le lendemain.Dès le lendemain, le service après-vente prenait contact et me proposait une solution qui était tout à fait acceptable. Ce qui, à mon avis, montre le sérieux de cette entreprise.Je suis pourtant avare d’éloges, car je considère que l’on n’a pas à gratifier une personne qui fait son job mais dans un monde de copie et de contrefaçon, de société aux services après-vente inexistant ou inopérant, il faut de souligner celles qui se soucis de leurs clients et qui ont une démarche commerciale de sérieux et de compétence.Outre que le TOMOLOV est un bon produit (malgré la panne, mais cela peut arriver), il y a un service après-vente existant et opérant, rapide et sérieux.Ça devient rare de nos jours.
