20x Magnification for 3D Observation — Ideal for Beginners and Hobbyists

The Celestron Labs S20 Stereo Microscope is a compact, lightweight, and easy-to-use stereo microscope designed for beginners, students, and hobbyists. With 20x total magnification, it’s the ideal tool for examining three-dimensional objects in crisp detail—perfect for observing insects, leaves, rocks, stamps, electronics, and more.

Featuring a Greenough optical design, durable metal construction, and top-mounted LED illumination, the S20 delivers clear, stereoscopic views in a simple, portable format. It comes ready to use out of the box with two 10x eyepieces, 2x objective lenses, and even includes two real insect specimens to begin exploring immediately.


Key Features

20x Fixed Magnification
Combining 10x wide-field eyepieces with 2x objective lenses, the S20 offers an optimal balance of magnification and working distance—ideal for viewing surface details and small objects in 3D.

Stereo Greenough Optical System
Provides true stereoscopic imaging with excellent depth perception, allowing users to observe fine structures from multiple angles.

LED Upper Illumination
A built-in top-mounted LED light brightly illuminates specimens from above—perfect for opaque objects. Optional lower lighting is available by removing the stage plate (user-supplied light required).

Durable, Portable Design
The metal head and rack-and-pinion focusing system offer long-lasting reliability. Lightweight and battery-powered, the S20 is ideal for field use and transport between home, classroom, and lab.

Order Fulfilment

  • Please contact us before sending anything back so we can advise on the safest way
  • For unwanted items, return shipping is your responsibility, and original shipping may be deducted where applicable

Does it come with a warranty?

All our products are UK stock so come with manufacturers warranty

What happens if I don't like it?

We always want you to be happy with your purchase — so if you’re unsure, please ask us first. We’re always happy to give honest advice before you buy.

If the product arrives and you simply decide it isn’t for you, you can usually return it within the cooling-off period — as long as it’s unused, in perfect condition, and returned with all original packaging and accessories.

Because telescopes and optical equipment are large, delicate and expensive to ship, you’ll need to cover the cost of sending it back, and if we originally subsidised delivery, we may deduct our outbound shipping costs from your refund.

We’re a small specialist business, and unnecessary returns genuinely hurt us — so if you’re unsure at all, please talk to us first. We’d rather help you choose the right item than process a return.

How fast is shipping?

We aim to ship in-stock items as quickly as possible.

  • Most in-stock orders dispatch within 1–2 working days
  • Delivery usually takes 1–3 working days after dispatch (UK mainland)
  • Heavier / oversized items and special orders may take a little longer

You’ll receive tracking details as soon as your order is on its way.

Astronomy equipment often requires specialist packing and trusted couriers — we do this to keep your gear safe, not to slow things down. If you need something urgently, just ask and we’ll do our best.
