10. Microfotography
10.1 Use of C-mount cameras
1. Loosen the clamping screw ① on the trinocular
port and remove the dust cap ②. (Fig. 35)
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. 36)
10.2 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" ring
just installed (Fig. 37).
4. Mount the other end of the relay tube ② into the
empty hole of the trinocular port, then tighten the
clamping screw. (Fig. 35)
•
"T2" ring is not provided along with the micro-
scope, but is commercialy available.
•
While shooting dark specimens, darken eyepiec-
es 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 ex-
posure times and a remote cord.
