## Questions & Answers

**Q: It is suddenly stop working, horizontal lines & no image. What's wrong?**
A: Check if there is a break in the signal wire near the USB (White wire) you may have bent it too far. It only takes a fraction to do harm to such a tiny wire.

**Q: Is it compatible with zeiss primo star? thank you**
A: I'm sorry but I do not know the answer.

**Q: How do you get an image to appear on the screen with a chromebook? Plugging in the usb does nothing.**
A: It seems that OS for a chromebook is "Chromium" which is not fit for the Celestron Digital Microscope imaging. The instrument (Celestron DMI) works on Windows PC.

**Q: I know this camera will not resolve at 5mp using photo booth,  however,  will it resolve at 5mp using windows 10 camera app?**
A: Nope. 2.1 mp is what I get in Windows Camera producing 16.9(1920x1080) images.

## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ it's a good cam but the software disk it comes with is a nope.
*by A***N on June 30, 2025*

it's a good cam but the software disk it comes with is a nope.i ran this cam with the disk supplied software on one computer and dealt with the low quality images but then switched computers .. and the daggone thing wouldn't connect (a la many of the 1star reviewers).but then i downloaded the appropriate program from the celestron website and instoslammo, cam works and everything is a whole lot better than the program on the supplied disk.if you had the same connection issues and were about to return it, try going to celestron's site.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ No app available for tablets.
*by T***N on October 25, 2023*

My intended use for this product is to photograph and video cyanobacteria and other aquatic life. The imager works with Windows and Macs, but Celestron does not have an Android app for it. It does NOT work with generic USB microscope apps such a MScopes. The software you need must be downloaded from Celestron and I recommend you follow their links from their "store" entry for this item to get the right version of manual and software. Also know that the camera image is a fraction of the eyepiece field of view. The software does have graphic tools including a scale, but I find the calibration tool for that scale to be quirky. Overall a nice product but it could use a bit of refinement for the software, and an app for Android tablets.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Don't bother with special software, it's just another camera.
*by D***N on June 15, 2025*

Works great as just another camera with the Microsoft Camera software. There was no need to download the Celestron software (which I have seen complaints about in the other reviews). The images are sharp and clear. Great value.
