Re: Aeolosoma?
How did you get such good resolution? How did you get the subject to move so slowly?

Re: Aeolosoma?
This is not actually a segmented worm like Aeolosoma, but a flatworm. I am not quite used to them in this kind of lighting but I think it shows the sensory pits associated with Stenostomum.
Re: Aeolosoma?
This is dic differential interference contrast which creates shadows filmed with some kind of dslr camera probably. Big worms usually don't move much. The worm is also huge which makes it easier for the camera to take good images of.DonSchaeffer wrote: ↑Sun Jun 07, 2020 2:10 pmHow did you get such good resolution?

Re: Aeolosoma?
There are a lot of examples of wonderful resolution in photos of ciliates.
Re: Aeolosoma?
True but either way it seems the main thing is a dslr camera with a good adapter

I am so bad at English. Sorry
This worm is pretty fast and it moves a lot.
I filmed the video and cut off a lot of the front and back.
because I can't get good results while this worm is moving fast
"A good sample brings good results."
I think this is more important than the quality of the microscope.
Thanks Don, micro
