Living in a freshwater aquarium, I'm cultivating from silt / water from a local wetland.
10x Chinese objective.
30 odd images, stacked.

Re: Copepod
Beautiful image!
Which illumination type do you use with the M20 (halogen, LED etc)?

Re: Copepod
Very good!!... Chinese objectives work well.. If the truth was known almost all objectives are made in China now.. It matters not what brand...

Thanks folks,
Hobbyst46, I'm using a 10W led, nothing fancy, just an led and driver screwed to a heat sink with a half ping pong ball for a diffuser.
It origionally came with an underpowered red chinese bulb, I then put in a 20W halogen, that was good but it evaporated the small drops of water the critters were in, not ideal
That was taken with a new darkfield filter invention, I put in a series of holes round the outer part of possibly a quarter of it, rotating it gave some interesting lighting effects.
BillT, unfortunately these are acros, the images take quite a bit of playing around with in Photoshop to remove the colour fringeing, all good fun.

Re: Copepod
Very nice image with photo shop, good reason led`s don`t evaporate the water as much, time is very important, wasted time is just wasted.
Re: Copepod
Well, you did a wonderful job...
