UKGamer have reviewed the remarkable Trekker Palm microscope. With its moderate 35x magnification and excellent optics it opens up an entire world of fun, education, quality checking and diagnostics for all the family. Best of all there's a really cool price for readers who can save a substantial 30% off the usual asking price and get free shipping (UK) or pay a nominal shipping fee (worldwide).

"The Trekker was designed by Rick Dickinson, former design chief for Sir Clive Sinclair and now the owner of Cambridge based design house Dickinson Associates. It uses a folded optics system of precision mirrors to cram the normal 150mm light path into such a compact design. In total there are three front-silvered mirrors, a two-element objective and a three-element eyepiece and the eyepiece can be removed for cleaning or for use as a hardly 10x handheld magnifier (loupe).
