Channel with much microscope information: kzfaq.info/love/-l-sRZPOd55p-SqleSKBNA# Microscope buying advice: kzfaq.info/sun/PL4WoSCazHjWjmSnIfb58mTqnH_TP1sYIM

Good lawd man, thanks for all your insights into this. It is invaluable information for someone who needs a clue

the trick you showed at the end really works. Rarely could I get a decent photo when using my android but stabilizing it with your hand encircling the ocular's stabilizes it great. you are the man!

This video helped me understand a lot of things. Thank you very much.

Thanks for the upload buddy, you did a really good job explaining things and I found it very helpful indeed. Keep up the great work

You videos help so much. I just purchased a T490B and am trying to create videos and pictures to compare and identify microorganisms but it’s proven difficult until now. Thank you my friend. I’ll be looking into obtaining that small digital camera setup you have there. It seems simple enough

Nice job explaining the camera adapters.

This is so cool. Nice, straight forward and very useful information on how to get quality images from a miscroscope. Thanks.

Thanks man, you just saved me so much headache!

Super helpful! This is the exact video I was looking for to learn more about microscope photography. Thank you so much!

thank you for great video, cheers :)

Great review of techniques

Thank you for this!

thank you so much for this! hard to find info on this subject

Very helpful and useful

Voy empezando este hoby y me es muy entretenido aprender de tu conocimiento, gracias

Would like to see more about the camera bracket set up you mentioned planning on doing a video dedicated to it. Thanks

Good job man

Thanks. it would be great if you could make a picture of the same element (or 2, at low and high magnification) with each of the setups (from the phone to the Reflex camera). If you would do an update of this video like that i´d love to watch it! ...also can you link in the description below your video, the link of the video on the setup to attach a compact camera? .... so that would be triple thanks i suppose... hehe..

What a great explanation! What about the camera bracket you mentioned ? Would realy like to see a video about it.

Thank you for sharing these tutorials! I recently started an Earth Science teaching job in the US and am going to give focus stacking a try on some of my better looking mineral grains. Do you have any advice for working with older microscope cameras? We have several microscope cameras (Sony, Panasonic) in my department, but they all have the old BNC video output cables. Is there hope that I could connect those to a modern laptop for digital image capture?

Hi Oliver, thanks for your super informative videos! I just got a couple new set ups (trinocular Amscope T409b-dk, and trinocular stereoscope) to use with my mirrorless dslr and dedicated hayear scope cam. While my videos come out amazing, my still images are complete crap LOL. Do you need to really turn up the illumination in order to get acceptable shutter speeds for still images? I had to crank my iso to 1600 or 3200 to get just 1/30 of a second, which as you know isn't fast enough to negate motion blur, and the noise at those ISOs is frustrating. If you have to increase the light intensity, do you still use the eye pieces to follow your subjects or do you do everything on the screen of the camera? I have my cameras connected to a large 1080p television but its difficult to follow the subjects with any magnification over 10x, because my camera is an APS-C the field of view is fairly small. Thank you for any help you can lend me! Its difficult starting out ;o)

Great information... Can you possibly do a video on focus stacking with the images from the microscope please.

Do you have any opinions on the nikon CF system? Where they compensate for all of the aberrations in the objective allowing for prime focus microphotography.

Hello, Oliver. What is the name of that camera clamp you are describing on this video at 12:38 minutes, and where can I find one to purchase, please? Thank you.

The issue with the USB 3.0 dropping to 2.0 is the bandwidth of the USB bus. I'd similar issue while setting up my VR sensor, getting 4x USB 3.0 to work at the same time is a huge hassle if you have a VR ready motherboard. TLDR; get a motherboard or PC with proper USB 3.0, or one that says VR ready.

Great video! Many Thanks! Did you provide a video for the clamp?...or can you provide a link for the purchase site? Thanks!

Do you recommend or have a video on any of the pocket microscopes that attach to a phone?

ok the phone mount can you explane it more were to get and such

I liked the concept of the video, but the example videos towards the end were overlayed by youtube's "next video" popups so maybe should've had your end credits at the end to extend the video a little or put this further ahead into your video. I think this subject would warrant more videos that exemplify the imagery captured by different camera options (including using a cell phone adapter, DSLR, etc.) thanks for your content.

which camera do you recommend for using a mac book as the monitor for darkfield blood studies?

for taking videos the limiting resolution of the camera is given by the rate and time of transmitting pictures to memory and not by lenses or objects

I have some computer USB ports that are 2.0 and some that are 3.0. I'm liking the idea of using my mobile phone more and more. Storage and many controls.

Where can I buy the adapter thing starting at 11.08 to put digital camera etc

4:29 did you by chance try updating your bios ( aka flashing your bios) software?

In your experience, which camera adapter is best for taking pictures of findings without any movement from the camera inside the eye-piece? I'm looking for a camera that will remain completely still when I take pictures.

Hi, what is the name of the clamp for the compact camera? Where can I buy it?

Hello, Thank you for the informative video. I have a question, please. What do you think about the Nikon microscope that already has an assembled camera system built-in? Thanks

Good point about not all computer manufacturers implementing USB 3.0 properly. Is there a way to fix this problem with firmware/software/driver, or is it a hardware problem?

Thank you for very good video, can I asc what do you think about these 2 sensors one has 1080P/Sony IMX236 1/2.8"(5.5x3.4) the other is also Sony Imx185 1/1.9"(7.20x4.05) there is difference in size of the sensors which do you think is bether situable for trinocular stereo microscope to obtain good quality picture and field of view? (I have already 2 reduction lenses 0.35x and 0.5x) Thank you.

Apart from the compensating camera eyepiece and it corrections, would you have the same imagequality if the camera was mounted on one of the eyepieces?

Hi @microbehunter! You´re videos are awesome! But seeing them, i have a question: i have a Sony A6300, a Aps-c cámera. I want to buy one microscope and the other stuffs to adapted it. Could you recommend to me something please?. I don´t have a lot of money :/

I have a microscope with monocular head (only one eyepiece). I would like to upgrade the head to a trinocular head. How can I tell if a trinocular head is compatible?

I am coming to like your vids and am becoming fascinated with the "undiscovered country" in my backyard garden. Can you suggest a scope that can resolve the kind of structures that I encounter, like mildew/mold and other water borne pathogens? I grow variety of veggies and my curcubits face threats like Phytophtora Capsici and Psuedoperonaspora Cubensis. By the way I LOVED your vids on Diatoms and now know why Diotomaceous earth kills cut-worms! Diotom shells are ciliicite and soft skinned insects take critical damage when they crawl thru it. Super! Thanks.

My Chinese Omax/Novel binocular scope should arrive in a few weeks. I am thinking of getting a set of PLAN achromatic objectives (4x/10x/40x/100x) for about USD103. Is this a smart move, or should I not expect much improvement with Chinese PLAN objectives over the regular Chinese achromatic objectives that come with the microscope? I expect that these PLAN objectives are very similar, if not identical, to the Amscope PLAN objectives that get good reviews on Amazon.

20:53 Can we simply use an eye piece of 5x (instead of the regular 10x) to get a similar image with the APS-C sensor Vs full frame? Or use a landscape zoom, wide angle, on the APS-C? What would be the general effect? I suspecte a wider field of view and smaller details with 5x ep + APS-C. I'm I right doctor?

Have a trinocular microscope with LCD and HDMI camera but the LCD does show the image of the object

Is there a reason to go for for an DSLR (Digital Single Lens Reflex) Camera over a MILC (Mirrorless Interchangeable Lens Camera) in regard of using it with a microscope?

Excellent, very helpful, thank you for posting it. If there is a way to, I would like to email you??

May I ask what photo tube should I buy from ebay？I bought a second-hand Olympus CH30 with 3 eye yesterday，thank you

One very important aspect of choosing a microscope camera is th CMOS SENSOR SIZE... Not just the megapixel count... 1/3.2" CMOS sensor = 7.9 mm (diagonal) FIELD OF VIEW (bit annoying discrepency between eye field and camera image field of view) 1/2.3" CMOS sensor = 11.0 mm (diagonal) FIELD OF VIEW (bit annoying discrepency between eye field and camera image field of view) 1/2" CMOS sensor = 12.7 mm (diagonal) FIELD OF VIEW 1/1.8 CMOS sensor = 14.1 mm (diagonal) FIELD OF VIEW 2/3" CMOS sensor = 16.9 mm (diagonal) FIELD OF VIEW (IDEAL for most microscope) 1" CMOS sensor = 25.4 mm (diagonal) FIELD OF VIEW (too big for most microscope)

Couldn't you use reduction lenses to overcome the problem with the small fov on a small sensor?

Sir you could have used the actual results with the settings used to demonstrate.

I meant to say the "clamp for focal photography using a digital camera (next to last set up shown on this video). Thanks

Hi. I have mikroskop . I need a microscope camera, what do you offer

So after 4 years... simple solution exist? Worth just get USB3 adapter?

Does someone know a tutorial for adapting the exposure & gain in the microscope camera? Thank you!!!!

wo rechne ich falsch...Nehmen wir an ich mikroskopiere mit NA 1 ca 60fach. Dann liegt meine Aufloesung etwa bei 1 Mikrometer. Das reele Zwischenbild hat die Groesse von etwa 1 Quadratzentimeter. Dann benoetige ich bei 1my Aufloesung schon 10 hoch acht Pixel. Das bedeutet eine Kamera mit 100 Megapixel. Noch nicht beruecksichtigt dass der Sensor der Kamera quadratisch ist und das mikroskopische Bild rund

How good is the quality of 350T ? is this clear enough for seeing Bacillus subtilis, Lactobacillus spp, Trichoderma spp, Bacillus spp and others ? meanwhile china microscope not good enough

Thanks for the video, very helpful. Should you not fix the title to "How can one take 'pictures' with a microscope?"

btw USB2.0 enough to transfer FHD@30fps - not too bad...

How about recording

you should number your content with clickable information at different time stamps

I use an astrophotography camera (asi1600mm-cool) camera and have to put the camera without any adapter on my Amscope T490B microscope. I have usb-3 but am only able to record short movies due to limits of my laptop. Here is a movie of microbes under the microscope: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/rJNpo9WUrJamh6c.html

Have you looked into 3D printers? It should be easy to make great adapters with a 3D printer. Or even 3D print a full microscope.

Just the info I needed. Thx. In case you're interested, "This is how it looks like" can just be shortened to "This is how it looks." That would be normal English usage. ;-)

the heavy and clumbsy DLSR cameras are obviously not the best solution for microscopie except that you can use them for normal fotos. Shurly microfotografie today makes no sense because we can make excelent moovies, but not only with a DLSR

Geez. You need sharpcap pro and a dedicated astrocam like asi178mc and a uv/ir block filter.

So we know what NOT to buy! And the adapter tube is "not cheap" even used. Try $1000+ So none of the smaller self contained digital eyepieces are worth getting?

you forgot the simplest way.....drawing

too top heavy not desinged for the job

what a senseless calculation and discussion.......the human eye has a resolution of max 4.1 Megapixel. The limiting factor ist the resolution of the presentating media. Use a Laptop ur Desktop with heigh resolution: 1920 x 1080 and that is about 2 Megapixels,. So an camera or 3 mega is sufficcent

Would you happen to have a link for the adapter that you used at 10:36 or something similar?
