16. Microphotography
16.1 Use of C-mount cameras
1. Loosen the clamping screw ① on the trinocular
port and remove the dust cap ②. (Fig. 73)
2. Screw the C-mount adapter ③ to the camera ④
and insert the round dovetail of the C-mount into
the empty hole of the trinocular port, then tighten
the clamping screw ①. (Fig. 74)
16.2 Use of reflex cameras
1. Insert the Reflex adapter ① into the relay tube to
the microscope ②.
2. Screw the "T2" ring ③ (not provided) to the reflex
adapter.
3. Connect the Reflex camera ④ to the "T2" just
installed (Fig. 75).
4. Mount the other end of the relay tube ② into the
empty hole of the trinocular port, then tighten the
clamping screw. (Fig. 73)
•
"T2" ring is not provided with the microscope, but
is commercialy available.
•
While shooting dark specimens, darken eyepieces
and viewfinder with a dark cloth to miminize the
diffused light.
•
To calculate the magnification of the camera:
objective magnification * camera magnification *
lens magnification.
•
If using an SLR camera, mirror movement
may cause the camera to vibrate.
•
We suggest lifting the mirror, using long
exposure times and a remote cord.
