Thanks guys, here's a compilation of the other shots I took during this shoot. Surprised I got the "face" somewhat in focus.

Found this little guy blocking out the bright field, so I moved my flash to transmit to the top of the stage, didn't know they could be red. http://www.photomacrography.net/forum/userpix/3080_edit7_1.jpg http://www.photomacrography.net/forum/userpix/3080_edit2_1.jpg http://www.photomacrography.net/f...

Well, I got my oly bhs, adapter L photo tube, om to eos adapter, canon 5d mark II, s-splan apo 10x. Here are a few of my first results. Haven't done any stacks yet, just trying to get some decent pictures. Brightfield, 10x S-plan Apo, Canon 5d Mk II http://www.photomacrography.net/forum/userpix/3080...

I have a BHS which I'm looking to get DIC for.. I realize this is a long road.. I just want to make sure I've got the right shopping list: BH-2 UCD with dic prisms appropriate for the objectives I have + 1.25 intermediate piece with a dic prism. Could you also put dic prism on each objective instead...

Hi Larry,
I'll take it! I'll pm for details.

Certainly appreciate the search Alan,

You wouldn't by any chance have an auction ending in a few days out? All of those were too last minute for me.

Thanks.

Hi all, curious about the options I have in attaching a Canon 5d Mk2 to a BHS, Initially I wanted to take the easy route and obtain an Adapter L, but after a few weeks of searching it seems like everyone is fresh out. Will this work? Seems like a lot for a metal tube? It's linked to from Alan Wood's...

Looking to attach a Canon 5d MkII to my BHS, Anyone know where I can find one?

Goofing around with my Amscope. Still working on my BHS setup, ie choosing a camera and nfk eyepiece.. got some plan apos for a real good deal though! http://www.photomacrography.net/forum/userpix/3080_20130630153654_ZS_PMax_1.jpg http://www.photomacrography.net/forum/userpix/3080_1one_1.jpg http://...

Brilliant Craig.

This fixed my problem...thanks!

Imagine my chagrin after finally getting a hold of a splan apo and a bhs that I find my stage is ever so slowly drifting.. Has anyone ever fixed this? Looking at the bhs repair manual is less than inspiring, I wouldn't know where to start, well.. other than taking apart the coarse/fine adjustment an...

Beautiful weather out here, and I got my amscope in a very mobile configuration. (Providing enough sun light..) Of course, I'm very careful not to look through the scope while using the sun as a light source. Anyway, I went to the beach along lake Michigan and started looking at some things. http://...

I was just looking at these and wondering the same thing.

Alan and Tom, thanks for the explanations.

It appears we have a common acquaintance. I find the four "feet" fascinating.. two near the head, two near the tail.
