Re: Good software for Apple/Mac & microscope cam ?
I am looking for how to get good life image on my Apple computer and take good pictures. You can buy affordable industry cameras with brands like Yizjan and Yahear etc. I bought a Yahear as a test. But can't find a decent Mac OS application. Either I only have a viewer and can't do any settings. Or...

Re: Adding an Abbe Condenser to a Student Microscope
Hello everyone, I have a Swift SW150 Microscope. Unfortunately it did not come with a condenser but I figured I could install one. There’s a small lens in the middle of the stage, I’m thinking I can simply remove it and replace it with an abbe condenser. My main issue here is that….I don’t know wha...

Re: Microscope for an industrial chemist?
One of our potential Micronaut mentors is looking for a new microscope. I'm hoping others can weigh the pros and cons of various options. He currently has a lower-end Leica stereo microscope with an AmScope 18mp camera - used for examining things like fibers, corrosion, silica, delamination of film...

Re: medical student help deciding on an Olympus model please
A BH2 will serve you nicely. I used one in a clinical lab for 20 years or so. All of the extras you mention are readily available. DPlans are quite nice with really flat fields, SPlans are even nicer, but generally overkill clinically. A couple of things though. I've never seen anyone use phase for...
