Here is the bracket I made to clamp my Fuji digital camera in place over the eyepiece of a microscope. The hole is deliberately made oversize to allow for fine adjustment to the orientation of the camera. The large hole is to allow access to the LCD screen brightness adjustment on the camera. |

The bracket is clamped to the microscope tube, and the camera fastened to the bracket via the standard tripod screw. The camera lens is unfortunately set well back in the body of the camera, behind a protective plastic cover, so you need a high eyepoint eyepiece. I found I got the best results using the 'macro' setting on the camera. |

And here's the complete setup on my little Meopta portable. (There's a write-up on this instrument elsewhere on the Web site) The quality of the objectives belies their 'toy' look. Not all this is realised by the camera, but I hope you will find the following pictures interesting - click here for some samples. |
