Hi,
many weeks ago I ordered a microscopy lens (10x) for taking photos with. Because of corona it tooks such a long time. Now it is delivered and I have taken some photos. At first the quality was moderate. It was difficult to keep the object and the camera steady. A normal tripod is not solid enough. It's good for a 4x microscopy lens but not for a 10x. Additional my macro slide is not as accurate as needed. Especially the driving jumps sometimes. So the focal plane jumps to.
The solution was an old turning lathe. I mounted the camera on it (on the cross slide). Now the camera is very solid mounted and I can move it for- or backwards for a fractional amount.
I found a half rotten fly. I.a. it has a big hole in one of its eyes. I took a photo of the eye with an insight into it.
Greetings Holger
