What Should I Get?

I just got a 16x magnifier from Hobby Lobby for 14 bucks. It is a whitman and it works great. I had considered getting the digital blue QX5 for looking at varieties but changed my mind when I bought the whittman mag. It all depends on what you want to do, if you want to post pictures I would get a digital microscope, but if you want to get something cheap just to see coins closer I would just get a magnifier at least 10x.

I picked up a QX5 digital microscope about a year ago to take pictures of Morgan VAMs. It wasn't too expensive ($80 shipped) and offers 10x, 60x and 200x magnification. The 10x will shoot about 1/2 a Morgan and the 60x is what I use to zoom in on the features. The 200x is worthless for coins. It takes decent photos, but the thing I've discovered is that 60x lets me find things I can't spot with the 10x loupe. Doubling jumps off the page as well as die breaks, clashes, etc. Now when I'm trying to identify what VAM I'm holding, I put the coin under 60x and look at the entire obverse and reverse.

Here's an example of the letter P in "PLURIBUS" under 60x
