I need to 3D print an adapter to make a regular digital camera fit the tube, but once that’s done, it should be possible to take some really nice pictures there. LED lighting, mounting rails for the work bench – and one of them has a photo tube. These are extremely nice – intended for medical research, electronics production etc – they have extremely good optics and mechanical construction. On a related note, during the fall I got a few (an auction lot that contained a bunch of units.) Leica stereo microscopes ( M60 and MZ6). Over the past year I have tried some video software, and still have a few on the try-these-out-list. but this is in part due to the lack of good OS X software for use with generic USB microscopes. To be honest it hasn’t been used much (it did come in handy during the repair of the BK Precision LCR meter though).
The microscope is actually pretty nice given its ca USD 60 price point, with decent picture quality, a sturdy stand (even though it’s somewhat of a pain adjusting it) and a built-in adjustable light source.
Got myself an Andonstar 2 megapixel USB microscope about a year ago, mainly just for testing it out, and having it readily available when some repair project demanded it.
