At higher magnification even the tiny movement caused by blood coursing through the veins and arteries in your hand will cause blurry photos. You either need a tripod or some way to steady the scope.
Unless you had it sitting on it's stand stationary and that's the best shot you could get then I don't know what happened.
I had to grind the cheap plastic base on mine to make it fit my tripod but it works pretty good. Lower resolution using the little wifi box that came with it but can get much higher rez when plugged into my desktop or a laptop.
I only had the rez set at 320 when it could go to 640 with the wifi.
Little caterpillar eggs on the underside of leaf on a plant I grew outside.
I only used it a couple times so could probably get better pics with some practise. Would rather get a good DSLR and some macro lenses and do it right but haven't won the lotto yet.

Ahhhhhhhh!!!! Post a trigger warning before a mite picture!!! Joking. I hate those little fucks. Nice shots though.At higher magnification even the tiny movement caused by blood coursing through the veins and arteries in your hand will cause blurry photos.

I use mine like a sniper. My hands shake all over the place from meds, but I turn off all the fans except the exhaust, and breathe out real slow while I take the shot. Definitely helps to have a wireless scope, and a picture button on the scope that works.
Best I can do without a tripod. Few steps above Michael j fox, if I dare say so.

I got one a long time ago... 1200x. They are super handy for detecting early bug invasions. Plus, it's just kinda cool to look at other things like a $100 bill... or any bill for that matter. The detail in the stamp die is incredible.
