USB microscope doesn't focus well at low magnification

Post by Tinaja »

I bought a USB microscope from Adafruit several months ago and I've just got around to using it to troubleshoot a grounded trace. I can't get it to focus very well except at around 180x because the transparent plastic ring is fixed. Lower magnification, offering a wider view, is frustratingly fuzzy. Does anyone have any ideas on how to improve the focus?
