above all, don't hesitate to post photos of the LEDs once installed. I am very impatient to see your lighting system. . .

do you have a link?

Your explanations are very interesting and well explained. I completely agree with you bkt.

FRanck, Very nice. Is there something similar to the EOS Utility but for the Panasonic Lumix G5 -JW: Hello all, JWW : Thanks JWW :) I also like the Canon EOS Utility software. Concerning the Panasonic G5 , to my knowledge, unfortunately there is no software allowing you to control it from a PC . He...

Hello all, Thanks to bkt's advice, i did some testing with the G5 in burst mode with various settings. The two best results I obtained at 800 iso and 1/20 seconds speed in 16 MB jpeg format maximum quality are in slow speed burst mode (2 images seconds) and in medium speed burst mode (3.7 images sec...

Hello bkt, some russian oldtimers being of the preferred ones... By the way, those old optics went expensive. It's true ! I have a Lomo microscope objective, the famous x3.7 / 0.11 and it is really very good indeed and really inexpensive compared to the quality of the renderings it gives. And the Ni...

Hello bkt,
Really very interesting!
The result of the fly is really of very good quality.
Sincerely,
FRanck

Thanks a lot.

Thanks Michael

Hello everyone, I hope that you all are ok.

Hello Bod,
Thank you very much for your feedback and the photo. Your macro bench is very professional.

The image from the crop is really impressive. I dont know how relevent this is to the ISO 800 setting but ~10 years ago I saw an ISO/noise comparison of a canon APSC (600d) against a full-frame canon (no idea of the model) ....the photographs were of of a blank cream-coloured wall with subdued indo...

Hello ADi, I hope you're well and thank you very much for your tip. I'm going to study this because it's true that there are too many reflections on the macro bench photos. Hello zzffnn, Thank you for your feedback and for the wax paper tip. Concerning the lights on the microscope, they are LEDs fro...

Hello everyone, I hope that you all are ok. @macnmotion - Thanks for the info. Indeed, you are right. Latency is an issue for videos of living organisms. I'm seriously considering buying a GH4 but it's 300/400 dollars ! . . . @Sure Squintsalot - Thanks for your feedback - Your questions and observat...

Hello everyone, @woyjwjl - I looked around the net and as you say, the Lumix GH4 is the best value for money for filming in 4k. However, I have a question to ask you regarding the Lumix GH4: Can we connect a Lumix GH4 to a PC with the possibility of seeing what the GH4 sees (live-view) as with the C...

Yes ADi, it’s true.
With the purchase of the Lomo 3.7x lens, the purchase of this Nikon BE Plan lens is certainly one of my best acquisitions in terms of value for money.
Thanks a lot again ADi

Hi ADi,
I hope you're well.
Thank you for your kind feedback but it's the lens that did it all Seriously, this Nikon BE Plan 10x 0.25 is really good.
Best, FRanck
