Plugs into a computer with the USB cable supplied, no extra power or batteries required, LED lights, zooms from 50X to 500X magnification*.

Magnification

50X to 500X.

It is technically easy to push the magnification of any low-cost microscope (or telescope) up to 500X (or even 100X) but the image will be too fuzzy to be of any use. Assume the maximum useable magnification for a microscope of this size to be between 100X...maybe 200X. 

The photos of the '3' are from a metal ruler (mm) with the zoom set to lower magnifications.
