Tardigrade 100x
Tardigrade 100x
Hello.
Today a little experiment.
Well, some time ago I was filming a tardigrade and using lenses with different magnifications.
Finally, I decided to use a 100x lens.
Working with him is very difficult due to his sensitivity to even the slightest twitch.
Nevertheless, I think there is a lot of potential in this lens.

Maciej

Very dramatic images. It looks like a tortured ballet routine.
Re: Tardigrade 100x
Very nice. I find it helpful when introducing topics/videos like this one to start with a lower magnification lens, so we can see the subject in its entirety. Then ramp up the magnification in steps, until you reach the target magnification (100x). After viewing the video, I had a desire to see the tardigrade in its entirety for better context. It was quite clear for 100x.

Don, einman, jackleone.
Thank you for your comments and opinions.
einman - I agree with you completely.
Your suggestion is completely understandable and logical.
But I have a problem.
Some time ago I posted a video about tardigrades on the forum. I used all the lenses at my disposal. Also a 100x lens.
But during editing and publication, I omitted this fragment and left it in the archive.
If I published the material in its entirety, it would be long and therefore uninteresting and boring.
Or I would have to make drastic cuts and I really don't like that.
I don't know how long the video should be so that it wouldn't be difficult to watch
As I wrote in the first post, the publication of this video was just an experiment.
I don't know if it's good.
I think the best solution would be to place a link at the end of the video to the material created at lower magnifications.
I will probably do that in the future.

Re: Tardigrade 100x
No problem Microplan. I was thinking more along the lines of showing the complete specimen at low magnification for a few seconds simply to introduce the subject. Then switch objectives gradually increasing magnification for a few seconds at a time. The majority of the video would be focused on your observations at the 100X magnification which is really your intent. Just an opinion. I'm not taking away from the video you presented. Just being selfish and would like to have seen the tardigrade in its entirety initially.

Re: Tardigrade 100x
I could sure see some nice detail. I do think this lens is too strong for the subject though.
