Full frame vs. APSC is something that you probably want to think about. Full frame will give you better center sharpness and better low-light performance, but also lower magnification, more vignette, and sometimes lower corner sharpness. If you're thinking about doing super quick stacks with live sp...

@rjlittlefield Thank you for the information! I think that it's fascinating that the limiting aperture controls perspective like that. I don't find that very intuitive, to be honest, but it is interesting. Maybe I will look at a ray diagram. The "position of the limiting aperture" refers to the appa...

Are long working distance objectives hypercentric?
Simple question. When the front element of the objective is significantly larger than the area covered by the image (as is the case for most Mitutoyo objectives, or the Nikon 50x SLWD), does that mean that the objective is hypercentric? I imagine the "viewing angle" would be negative, pointing in fr...

@Pau: I'm using a Canon 6D (full frame) Something else I'm confused about: How do people connect camera body, rayonox, bellows, and objective? Is there some diagram that you know of that has a list of all of the adaptors etc.? That would be very helpful to me. Edit: I think I found what I'm looking ...

Calculating vignette, cropping on tube lens?
I am using a 180mm f3.5 tube lens, and there is a significant sharp vignette with all of my objectives. I may buy another fast telephoto lens soon, but only if I could use it as a tube lens for my microscopy. I understand that the vignette is caused by the small aperture on my tube lens, but how do ...
