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.

Hey that's really interesting Don!
How closely do the images compare to what you actually see with your eye through the microscope?
