Today I put slides under a cheap and an expensive microscope to compare how good these are.

When I worked at the U of M we paid Over $1000 per binocular Nikon student scope and that was 15 years ago. The scopes were optically very good and they were also durable as they were used daily. Durable means the coarse and fine controls the condenser and the mechanical stage and tumbler had to be good.

Is there any way of converting an entry level microscope to DIC imaging? also I would like to look at opaque samples like steel of knives, is there some ring LED accessories I can install on my microscope?

What is the brand/model of the expensive microscope used here? Is it the Olympus one?

Is there a big difference between the swift 350t & the 380t? What day do your go live?

@Microbehunter 5 ай бұрын

I go live usually on Saturday 21:30 CET. The 380T has better optics. www.microbehunter.com/microscopy-forum/viewtopic.php?t=12505

It's not related to microscopy. It's an enzyme that chemically 'attack' your mouth a little bit.

Are there 3D microscopes in existence or are they impossible to manufacture?

In my opinion, low cost "cheap" microscopes that were available in the '60s and '70s were terrible compaired to modern made Chinese/Taiwan made microscopes. Still, you get what you pay for.

I purchased a AmScope to look at dog semen and I can't see anything. It has a WF25X eye piece and 100/1.25, 40/0.65, 10/0.25, and 4/0.10 lens. Sorry, I don't the technical terms. Should this microscope work for this? Or am I probably doing something wrong?

Looks like a difference between PointandShoot cameras and DSRL, both good for the beginners, but cheap are waste of time, money and interesting moments. And very important sturdiness, heavy all metal parts, smoothness of mechanisms.

I would strongly disagree with this. Photography is all about photograph composition and perspective. Lots of award winning photos have been taken on cheap cameras.

@@darkwingbeatz1835 What about shades, colors, depth of field, clarity, details...? Any example of "award winning" made with pointandshoot camera?

Not everyone has DSLR money. When 100 bucks is all you have, it is better to have a cheap micro than no microscope at all. Talking about hobbyists here.
