Nice Mike! Nice to see them at a magnification greater than the 20x my stacking rig gives.

Ah, yes... both darkfield with BD DIC 40x objectives. The camera, believe it or not, is a cheap-o USB camera from OMAX, although it is the 14 MP version. Presented here is at 25% of the original size, pushed through Photoshop for levels and unsharp masking. I just got a c-mount adapter so I can put that same camera or any c-mount on the Diaphot, Epiphot, Optiphot, etc, but using the Nikon CF PL 2.5x or 5x projection lenses, rather than the OMAX thing... I'll have to see how much better it really is!

Thanks for looking, Steve and James!

Mike
