disturb the observation. (Fig. 21)

10. Microphotography

10.1

Installing the C-mount adapter

1. Loosen the clamping screw ① on the trinocular
port and remove the dust cap ②. (Fig. 22)
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 (Fig. 23),
then tighten the clamping screw ①. (Fig. 22)
10.2 Use of reflex cameras
1. Insert the Reflex adapter ① into the relay tube 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. 24)
4. Install the other end of the relay tube ② into the
microscope as already explained in chapter 10.1.
• "T2" ring is not provided along with the microsco-
pe, but is commercialy available.
• While shooting dark specimens, darken eyepie-
ces and viewfinder with a dark cloth to miminize
the diffused light.
• To calculate the magnification of the camera:
objective magnification * camera magnification *
lens magnification.
• When using an SLR camera, mirror mo-
vement may cause the camera to vibrate.
We suggest lifting the mirror, using long ex-
posure times and a remote cord.
