FWIW my earlier post about magnification really is utter bollocks, for some reason I’d misremembered the eyepiece code, its a WF10X, so 10x, and the smallest objective is 4x, so the iPhone pic is 4x10, so 40x magnification total and therefore four times the Belomo loupe. I understand it perfectly now. The picture is not quite that simple though as the iPhone can’t get close enough to the eyepiece to see the full field of view, so the impression from my pic is probably of an even larger magnification, but far less sharp than it is in reality (again I found it very hard to focus for the iPhone, plus it kept hunting for focus itself, so really not an example to be taken seriously here.
I’ve found I have enough room beneath the small objective with the platform wound down to stand the M95 up on its pins and get a nicely focused front-on shot, so this thing has no issue with a typical sized cart. That’s standing it on a glass slide, technically I could lose the pin length by winding the lower condenser lens assembly down (or removing it, it just clips in) and pushing the pins through a piece of card, i.e. it could deal with a longer cart body if need be.
