Re: Test picture
Beautiful Diatoms! Was this picture taken by placing the camera on a tripod and focusing it on the eye-piece? I thought you had mentioned that was one of the methods you used back in the "my microscope" area?
Re: Test picture
Hello hyla and thanks!
Yes, image was viewed using 40X objective, dark field and the picture was taken using the Leica D-Lux4 mounted on a tripod just in front of one of the BX-41 eyepieces to limit vibration. Even though the D-Lux4 and RX1 are both mirror-less cameras, there's sufficient vibration from the shutter to blur images at higher magnification levels.
Take care,
Mark
