Table of Pros/Cons:
| compound light microscope |
+ | It has been extremely important in the development of the biological sciences and of medicine. |
+ | easy to use |
+ | inexpensive related to electron microscopes |
+ | can look at live samples |
- | Viruses, molecules and atoms cannot be viewed (viewed only with an electron microscope.) |
- | can't magnify more than 2000 times |
| scanning electron microscope |
+ | large depth of field allows more of a specimen to be in focus at one time. |
+ | uses electromagnets rather than lenses so the researcher has much more control in the degree of magnification. |
+ | strikingly clear images. |
