A stereo microscope gives an upright, three-dimensional view at modest magnification, so it suits specimens too thick for a glass slide: insect mouthparts, flower parts, seeds, bread mould, soil animals, crystals and fossils. Within school biology lab equipment it is the instrument for dissection work, because the 60 mm working distance leaves room for forceps and needles under the objective. Objects up to 97 mm tall fit on the stage.
Use the incident (overhead) light for opaque objects such as leaves or beetles, and the transmitted (base) light through the transparent plate for thin material like insect wings or pond organisms in a dish. The black/white plate adds contrast: white behind dark specimens, black behind pale ones. Begin at 20x, where the wider field makes searching easier, then turn the objective to 4x for 40x detail.
