Welcome Billy,
Start simple, that's my best advice.
Grow with your experience and if you like it, go further from there.

Don´t start "High End", spend some time on this great forum...

All the best from Norway

Hi Saul,
This is too bad!
Leave a message to eBay with link to the 3D FAQ...

Hi Saul,
This is just great.
It has given me some ideas.

Thank you so much for sharing this brilliant project

Hi Saul,
Looking forward to see some images with that kind of light.

Please share

Hi ElGordo,
I think your problem is the SD card. Not sure your scope can handle 16GB.

Have you tried with a smaller card (2 or 4GB)?

Hi gang, Must say I am impressed by Zerene Stacker. Until recent I've been using EOS 7D and EOS 5D Mk II for stacking. Worked just fine. No problems at all. A month ago I bought a secondhand EOS 5Ds R. It's a great camera, some would say overkill for sure, but I went for it. It's a dream to work wit...

Hi Guppy,
Great image. Love the light and details.
Your diffusion works just great.

Thanks for sharing

Hi Geopressure,
Love micro minerals...

They are fascinating and a joy to photograph.
Light is the big challenge with all the reflections.

Going to do some next week I think.

Keep those images coming and thanks for sharing

Hi Christian,
This is just great. Very well executed

Great inspiration

Thanks for sharing

Hi gang,
Here is citric acid I've been working on.
Stacking DMap, pol + retarder

Great capture u/zerosapte

Thanks for the sharing and inspiration

Hi, Thanks for your time and great tips. I will check them out Another important question- what size sensor? It will be a FF sensor on my EOS 5D II The MPLAN ELWD 40x 0.50 in particular has slightly more than 10 mm working distance, so illumination of the subject is easier. This is very interesting....

I am going to use it on a trinocular bio microscope from AmScope to photograph, so I guess direct projection

Was hoping to get 2mm WD.
NA not critical and finite I think.

I am not good in these terms.

Shall use it to photograph micro minerals

Hi there good people,

Any recommendations for a good 40x objective LWD with RMS threads that doesn't cost an arm?

Hi good people, Just ordered this book from a Norwegian site: https://www.tanum.no/_beyond-extreme-close-up-photography-julian-cremona-9781785004650 Got it recommended from a professor in the university in Oslo. I will soon receive some books from him about micro organisms Happy Easter to you all :D
