Digital Microscope
#1

I bought a Digital Blue Microscope at Blacks Cameras for $50 today. It's a toy with many limitations but it can make some interesting pictures at maginfications of 10x. 60x, or 200x (so far I haven't been able to do much with the 200x--lighting is a problem). I just played with a little with the following results.

a penny at 60x

piece of onion at 60x


Not great but it could be interesting.

Nikon D3100 with Tokina 28-70mm f3.5, (I like to use a Vivitar .43x aux on the 28-70mm Tokina), Nikkor 10.5 mm fisheye, Quanteray 70-300mm f4.5, ProOptic 500 mm f6.3 mirror lens. http://donschaefferphoto.blogspot.com/

Hey that's really interesting Don!

How closely do the images compare to what you actually see with your eye through the microscope?
