17. Microphotography
17.1 Use of C-mount cameras
1. Loosen the clamping screw ① on the trinocular port and
remove the dust cap ②. (Fig. 102)
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. 103)
17.2 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.
104).
4. Mount the other end of the relay tube ② into the empty hole
of the trinocular port, then tighten the clamping screw. (Fig.
102)
•
"T2" ring is not provided with the microscope, but is
commercially available.
•
While shooting dark specimens, darken eyepieces and
viewfinder with a dark cloth to minimize the diffused light.

To

the
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.
