Microscope for a home yeast lab?

To be honest, as a Clinical Lab Scientist, who used to work in Mycology. I do not see what you plan on gaining by using a microscope. Most species of yeast can only be differentiated using biochemical test, and there are difference in the way SOME yeast species look on the microscope slide, but they are not definative because Microorganisms really do not behave nice in the real world. IE they are suppose to act one way, look like this, but often because they are alive do not conform to the rules. I think you would be greatly disapointed in spending the money on a microscope for your home. Also good clinical objectives cost 10,000-50,000. PM if you have any other questions.
