If you can tell me how the extension tube is attached to your microscope I may design the adapter in a 3D CAD software for you...

Thanks Daruosha. Can you tell us what type of microscope you use (upright, inverted...) and the objective's type (160mm, infinity...) in order to see if the solution can be used on a wide range of microscopes? The current connection between the T2 ring M42x0.75 side to the camera port is an ABS 3D p...

Reading your post I just realize you are absolutely, definitively and positively right on target my dear Scarodactyl! After a quick search I found the exact same adapter with AmScope branding! And there is more: if you look at this adapter designed for my microscope https://www.optikamicroscopes.com...

It is just smooth and the locking screw presses onto the inner ring. Depth = 8mm. With the object centered on the eyepiece I was never able to center it on the DSLR. There are currently 3 screws, I drilled two more holes which I tapped with M5 thread. Now when the object is centered on the eyepiece ...

I understand now that my topic's title is not the wisest.... "A way to get a better image" rather than "a way to get the perfect image" should have been more appropriate. My apologies... :oops: Hopefully Malpi gets me right on that. To be more explicit, my microscope is an Optika IM-3: https://www.o...

I'm sorry... problem is to share 61MP RAW pictures (9504x6336) without compression to see what the quality really is with the system.

Is the forum "My microscope" the right place to do so?

Please find here a picture of the actual setup and a sample picture: https://we.tl/t-qQrZ2Vm6mO

The files will be available for one week. If you have any question please do not hesitate.

Sorry if I wasn't clear... Is the lengthy tube on your microscope manufactured with care - and you can nevertheless tilt it ? . Yes, because the tube is a part that locks inside "the trino port", and it is possible to tilt it a bit when the lock screws are loose. It was a test to see if tilting has ...

My bad... but I cannot change it. The profile allows to change everything except the username!

HELP

Dear members, Most microscopy pictures I saw by a DSLR camera are ...let's say.... below expectation. But pictures with a small sensor (5 MPX) are quite OK. Some very expensive dedicated camera (16.25MP for more than $11000) are stunning. How comes that DSLRs are so bad at the job, even with a quali...

Is it the microscopy classroom? Is Oliver our teacher? May I take a seat? :P I'm the new student from Belgium, my name is Stephen and I have two microscopes: a Zeiss 9902 (old educational microscope, still very good) and an Optika IM-3. The Zeiss is a upright microscope, and the IM-3 an inverted one.
