Anyone works with a Motic BA 400 / BA410 series.
I wanted to check if there are persons who use or have used a Motic BA 410 (or BA400) and can share their experience.

If I go for a new Chinese scope I go for this one (but I am still not trying to divorce from my old Zeiss .)

Hi, many but not all Canons have an optinal vibration free exposure by means of an electronic first shutter cuteain function (google efsc +Eos...). This function allows to expose without any movement out of live view and has to be switched on manually. Do you know and use this function? Is your cam...

Re: Images from x100 and AxioLab Re - is image quality as expected or crap and need to upgrade?
The image doesn't look like it is in focus. Did you solve your cover slip thickness issue? I had the same struggle with my 90x. Yes I did solve it. I used new coverslips and fixed the stage more solidly in place. Still, I have lots of movement going on in the mount (spores turn around when I move t...

Re: Images from x100 and AxioLab Re - is image quality as expected or crap and need to upgrade?
Yes :-( I agree, trivial: at x100 I noticed that slight movement while holding camera on eyepiece results in shakes/vibrations that affects the image quality, while a timer option (usually 2sec) on the EOS standing on its own reduced that effect (=less blurry). Yet my images are not sharp/good. They...

Hi, I have submitted some posts over my setup these last few days, including buying a new scope and some asked why and that I should keep my AxioLab. I wish to reply to the reason on a separate post here. First of all, I take images in two ways. Either with my portable Canon GX5 through the eyepiece...

Re: Is my Zeiss Plan-NeoFluar x100 obj 1018-595 (1066-987)
Dear all, Thank you for your replies.
I was probably using some bad coverslips because I opened the new box stated to be 013-0.17mm and I had better success, yet the photos from my setup are not really amazing. I will discuss this in another topic to keep with the topic.

Re: Is my Zeiss Plan-NeoFluar x100 obj 1018-595 (1066-987)
Have you put a micrometer on your coverslips? Perhaps they are too thick. The coverslip correction on the barrel includes the sample thickness as well. The 0.17 is the thickness needed if your sample is very thin as would be with a smear. If you are looking at something with any appreciable amount ...

Re: Is my Zeiss Plan-NeoFluar x100 obj 1018-595 (1066-987)
I think the specimen tissue is thin enough as I also have this problem when I observe spores (5-30 um). I ordered 0.12-0.16mm coverslips because can't find any other reason why this is happening. I use ordinary coverslips rated at 13 to 17/100 mm. I was afraid that the objective is a bit large and m...

Re: The usual odd question - which new microscope?
Problem is that I can't find a trinocular for my Model.

These are taken from the eyepiece Finally,...

I have bought the objective in the caption for a good sum of money about a year ago but I have not got wonders of joy out of it. it is x100/ 1,30 oil immersion, infinity and 0.17. It is fitted to a Zeiss Axiolab RE. I realised there is a physical problem. When the image is in focus (or almost) the l...

The usual odd question - which new microscope?
Good evening friends.

No need of special illumination 1. I would like to have ...
