RE: $20 USB microscope

I have one of those USB microscopes, it will let you see the general condition of the stylus, but you need a better stand to get better focus at higher magnification. Stands with adjustments can be Found on Ebay for about $20 shipped from China. Or buy another USB microscope with the better adjustable stand included for the same price...hey, it's China.

Did you install the software? Should have come with a disc. I was able to take pics by clicking on a "image capture" in the menu, you click it with your mouse, the camera has a button also, but is difficult to get a sharp image because the camera moves when you press it.

For $20 it does work, but takes a lot of practice to get a sharp enough image to see facets and wear and tear on those facets.
