Hey there! I'm IN SEARCH OF a good solid microscope for an amateur with some bells and whistles. I'd prefer to use this microscope way into my studys of gems. I do not want a rinky, dinky microscope. My budget is $800 - $1000, prefer to purchase at a reasonable price. Can anyone recommend some, along with advice and tips from you experts out there? I'm wanting to buy one A.S.A.P. So I'll wait to hear from someone, ok?

Thank you for reading my post,
QIA, Anita

A used gemolite is some of the best bang for your buck available. They are built in the oldschool manner, with lots of metal.
