I've noticed on the websites that sell the Nexscope with DIC is that the DIC kit that come with the microscope only have two DIC prisms for 10/20 and 40/100. Does this affect the quality of the DIC since I see some outfits that have a prism for 10, 20, 40, 60 and 100 objectives? The Nexscope would h...

Yes. Please post some images. No one here can really evaluate the quality without evidence.

As for APS-C sensors - which C-mount lens would one need? Would a 1x suffice or would one need 1.5x ?

That one toward the end had a nice slant to it, almost like a 3D with a tilt effect. That one was the most interesting. I wonder how this one was captured? It looks insanely detailed.

I don't have any DIC images from this scope yet...I haven't 100% figured out my camera solution. Today or tomorrow I'll do a video review of my scope and start a thread on it in the "my microscope" forum. We can discuss the ins and outs there and I'll see if I can get some sample images as well.

In short, my new microscopes is a BestScope BS2081. It is built in the same factory as the Nikon products Novel Optics manufactures, so their optical system is compatible with Nikon's current system (60mm parfocal, 200 reference, etc.). It is essentially the same microscope sold as AccuScope EXC-50...
