Hi Jim try this website for hosting your images https://postimages.org/ it's free and you can create a hi resolution image link that can be pasted into the forum to display the image here.

Micam 2.4 has a system for setting up measurements for each objective by taking images of a stage micrometer with each objective then calibrating the image. Once setup, using Micam to take measurements is simply a matter of picking which objective was used to take the image. https://i.postimg.cc/FHq...

Microscopes com Aunet Pty Ltd 20 Pomelaa Way Clarkson WA, 6030 Don't know what your budget is but there is this one ,Nikon Eclipse E-100 Trinocular Microscope, on their website, which has options for phase contrast. I know Australia is a very large country, a three day train ride from east to west i...

Make sure you don't stack images from below the halfway point of the subject and that you have the correct order of images, either from the top down or bottom up (middle) (depending on which order you took the images) in the settings.

As far as I can see there are no Bresser dealers in Australia. :cry: Also dark-field microscopy is not a difficult or expensive technique, just the addition of dark-field stops under the condenser. The stops can be made by hand with a felt tip pen and some clear plastic. Better of course with the ad...

I tried that it makes the light a little green.

Sir:- Remember, images are taken by camera's NOT microscopes.

Calibration slide for microscope:

There are many others. Just search the net for 'microscope calibration slide'.

An update on the sweetcorn anther husk. It has been sitting in my slide collection since the last post and today I decided to try out my dark field masks again.
Soooo:-

A new image stack of that old sweet corn anther husk.

It doesn't do anything with the parts that are out of focus. It 'copies' the parts of the images that are 'in' focus and combines those 'in focus' parts into a new image.

Maybe it's just sugar, water and some colouring and not honey at all. I don't think you can filter pollen grains out of honey and still have a product that you could sell at a profit.

Forget the honey it's full of pollen.

In a cold room the viscosity will drop in any oil.

What a strange thought. Maybe we should let those pesky microbes have their freedom to do as they (want? will !!!) and let Covid, Dengi, Sars etc, have the freedom to do as they see fit. Wolves will lick your hand, bears will eat your food (and probably you) and bacteria will dissolve your flesh. Li...

Mycocam

I could never get it to work.

Horror of horror's, it's bad enough seeing your finger ends when looking at rocks under the stereo scope. My advise is not to look in great depth at anything that comes from your person.

I kept the tick that gave me Lyme disease, made her a nice little home of sticks and dead vegetation and let her gestate her eggs in a peaceful and relaxed envionment. Her larva as they grew to healthy nymphs were a wonder to behold. I used to let them frolick and play in the warm security of my ar...

Platanus is larger than 30um, see here:- https://www.paldat.org/search/genus/Platanus Salix is around 10um see here;- https://www.paldat.org/search/genus/Salix however there are many species which are slightly different in size. It would help if you could say where and when you found the sample.

I have checked all the pages written in Russian and there is no mention of a price for the software, just contact emails if you want more information. (Use google translate does a pretty good job).

It could be that they no longer exist. The only information I could find about the companies using the software is all Russian based and Altami's website has not been updated for at least one year.

Use toupview instead, its free.

Just a thought, have you fully opened the condenser diaphragm?

For an image hosting website try this. It's free and has links for your images to post on various web sites including hotlinks for forums such as this one. (This is what I use). Once your image and link is posted into the forum you can click on it to take you to the full size image on Postimages. ht...

Young people also have problems with merging the images on a binocular microscope. Oliver has a video on one of his channels where he mentions this but I could not find it.

Options, Magnification, select the 4x or whichever one you want to delete and click DELETE.

Edit: By the way there is a help file in the program. Help, Help contents.

That's an old version of Toupview released in 2018.
My version which I downloaded in May is:

Hi JodyMusto,

Hmmmm? Not quite sure how you link image sensor size or image quality to 'Dummy Battery' adapter.

Hi Dave S
Glad you got sorted with the battery adapter is it really a year since you bought the camera?
