What microscope to take for soldering? usb-shny with ali or bu single-eye?

Question

Do it yourself

otherwise I have a desire to try to solder all sorts of small things and there is not enough money (2 rubles maximum).
if I take a single-eye lens, then, of course, I will attach diodes so that everything can be seen.

Answer 1

2 rubles... for which you can't even buy a box of matches? O_o
Take a webcam from some dead / old laptop and remake it under a microscope - there are a lot of instructions on the Internet.

Answer 2

cheap usb cameras have a large lag when using, a crappy matrix, crappy software, poor focusing, extremely frostbitten processors in terms of backlight processing. all the pluses are only in the form of ticks on paper, in practice, patience will end in the first hour of use.

Answer 3

"One-eyed" I do not recommend. This microscope is not for assembly work, but for quality control and troubleshooting such as non-solders, short circuits and other assembly and soldering defects.
For normal operation, it is desirable to have a binocular microscope. The monocular is only good for "trying". It is very inconvenient to work with him all the time, there is no sense of depth, and therefore it is very inconvenient to place elements on the printed circuit board.
I say this because I have been working with and without microscopes for 5 years already.
