In order to continue the previous thread on phototubes "without" intermediate optics, but more restricted to Wil / leica phototubes, I give here information about my equipment and projects to get good (or at least better than up to now!) pictures
Up to now, I've used a Wild M7a, and now a Wild M8, with a Wild phototube (old model : 30 mm inside diameter, see picture) with a 15x normal eyepiece on top of this tube then the black metal adapter where is screwed a coolpix4500
But I've also the other larger Wild phototube (38 mm diameter )
Sorry for bent picture, but I couldn't rotate it here

I use this equipment especially for insect dissections and for study of their genitalia (genital organs), used in taxonomy
After dissection, I put them on a slide under cover glass, for pictures used as records
These pictures are just used to exchange et classify these specimens, they are not really good ones from a photographer point of view

That why I would like to improve them and reading about setups without eyepieces gave me idea to also try this way wich also is very cheap comparing with Wild projectives prices
![Surprised :o](./images/smilies/icon_e_surprised.gif)
I've a 4/3 camera (GX80) to try taking pictures without eyepiece.
That's why I've asked more details about a Wild setup seen on the previous thread
Thank for your help....
