Compound Light | -They use light to magnify objects. -They magnify up to about 2000x. (Ours magnify up to about 500x.) -You use one eye to see, so you see in two dimensions (2D). [Let's try.] -The object you look at must be thin enough for light to pass through. |
Stereoscopic | -They use light to magnify objects.-Ours magnify up to about 50x. -You use two eyes to see, so you see in three dimensions (3D). -The object you look at can be thick; light does not need to pass through it. |
Transmission Electron (TEM) | -They use electrons to magnify. -Magnifies up to 1,000,000x. -Only makes 2D images. -Object must be thin. |
Scanning Electron | -They use electrons to magnify. -Magnifies up to about 200,000x. -Makes 3D images. -Object can be thick. |
