The thing is I have a dslr a100 sony camera and I ordered an adapter but I dont understand how id only need that and no "objective" :S is it gonna work or I need something like john? Thank you guys for the great helpI really appreciate

Oooh ok I see now! I think Ill buy the camera but an adapter like yours is itcworth it or you dont really need it to make it work and just makes the quality better? Im looking at a 0.5 external objextive for cam

If I buy the camera I will post couple of pictures so we know if its worth it after all

Woow thank you guys for the detailed answers I trully aprecciate! :mrgreen: Omax offers cameras that look like the one john has attached on the trino starting 0.3 to 18 mp I think but alot more expensive starting around 75$ for the 0.3 one :( about the optics you put under the cam, where did you get...

I thought no one would care about toy microscope but Im glad you collect them, sometime you can find bizzard looking scopes ahahah and bring back memories too

Wow you have a very nice collection! I wonder how good the lens are what years are these microscope from? Assuming its plastic its a bit recent and that tasco microscope looks very good for a toy damn easy to bring in the field not too heavy

Yeah I got the tube with the eggs in it ahah theres a fly in a solution that looks like it died yesterday too ahahahah Nice box you got there in good condition! Your focusing knob still works? Mine turns but doesnt move

I have a sony camera (I dont know the model will look tonight) is it a pain in the back to buy an adapter which is gonna take amazing pictures? Im really neophyte in this whole microscopy thing hehe thanks for helping me out kit I truly appreciate!

Thank you very much guys for the help! I will read the thread but I wonder how much is the camera you bought? Or the pirce with all the upgrades?

AHAH a subaru with a ferrari engine I like that!

Im already contaminated when I see all the top notch microscope you guys have it makes me wanna upgrade already hehehehe

I am looking for any prepared slides of cacti please contact me if you have any to sell

Ahahah ill follow your advice! But in the future should I buy a better microscope brand even if its used?

What objective would fit? Anything to recommend higher than the ones I have?

You recommend I buy this? Thats top quality ? I put a bid on it ahah they look interesting

Hello I have an Omax compound microscope and was wondering if you can buy lens from different company if they have the same size? Or its a bad idea and should stick to "chinese" lens hehe

Of course go ahead

Thank you sir You should post your toy microscopes!
They advertise slmething they dont offer ahahah

Salut! A set in pretty good condition I got from my cousin. The focusing knob does work anymore else than that no missing parts Is it rare?

Oh ok now I understand its to filter (obvious) ahahah should I be worried about it being chinese? Its a omax its korean isnt it? Is it considered a cheap microscope brand?

Hello! I have a green color filter that comes with the Omax M837L and I was wondering, is it useful to have many different filters? If so what color should I buy? Understand that im a newbie in the microscopy world hehehe :mrgreen: I have many questions regarding my scope if anyone is willing to hel...

Yeah thanks! Ive been reading the beginner guide 2 weeks prior to having my microscope ahahahah

Nice pictures! I have an Omax like you the M837L what camera did you use? How many MP?

I intend to observe live organisms, cells etc pretty much everything cellular ahahah I chose the M837L because I asked a seller what microscope could be fitted with a phase contrast kit (I figured Id buy one later because I heard you can see better with that) so far it works great and its top qualit...

Hi i'm relatively new to the world ofmicroscopy, I just bought a microscope (i've always wanted one, finally!) a M837L Omax 2500x and not even a day and im sure I did many mistakes ahahah anyone got feedback for the M837L?
