Hello from West Sussex UK

#1 Post by MicroSarah » Sat Nov 21, 2020 2:25 pm

Hello all. I have just rediscovered photomicroscopy having the time now to explore and loving it! I use a Swift 380T which is giving great results. I am trying to get images using a Nikon D5500 with Amscope adaptor. Getting mixed results with the images not being as sharp as the view through the objective.
My main interest at the moment are critters found in the pond and growing crystals.
