This version of the field guide is delivered as a downloadable 32 page PDF and is included free with every microscope purchase.

It turns out, microscopy is about a lot more than the equipment. There are important skills to develop in observation, collection, identification and more. So, we put this guide together to help you get the most out of your microscope, find your first tardigrade, and try and figure out what the heck you’re looking at when you find something.
