Ludlamite

A good friend sent me this gift, also as a challenge to try to play with the reflections on the mineral faces. The result, despite the fact that I have used my old Canon 1100, I think it has been worthy.

Re: Looking for a x10 LWD lens

thank you both very much. It's lovely to be in a forum like this with people like you. Unfortunately my friend is starting with finite lens, I think it's easier at the beginning. I also use finite lenses, but I find your offer very tempting to me ... Do you think you could extend your offer to me, p...

Re: Not really a macro

Of course, you can play as you want. But there are a reason for that:🤣 I use a chinese glasses for to watch stereo (parallel) pairs, the only way for me for to watch them. The second satelit exit from the shadow of Jupiter between the two photos 🤷‍♂️. I need to put the planet in order the movement o...

Not really a macro

exactly. It's not a macro, but after hours of staring at the screen to try and see a stereo pair, maybe it's nice to have other points of view :) Yesterday the sky was especially stable and allowed me to take more detailed images than is normal in my observatory. I have mounted a stereo pair with tw...

photos from two folders in Zerene

Hello. I have a question from Zerene. Quite often I find that my Canon has split the photos for a stack into two folders, because the numbering of the photos has reached IMG_9999 during the process. I have not found how to load them all in Zerene in the order in which they were taken Is there a tric...

Re: Bondic® is NOT A GLUE, says the manufacturer

Re: episcopic adapter

These types of threads always end up circulating towards topics that I don't understand anything about. Obviously, my lighting is not Köhler. It is a 3W LED head, I think, which falls short anyway because it is a system that wastes an impressive amount of light. But something has suggested to me wha...

Re: episcopic adapter

Does your epi-illumination cover all the field? Do you use any wind of collimating optics? ... no... I have tested it only with the x4, that is not the best objective for this use. And I not used a small chip camera attached to a microscope, but a APS Canon body. Next test will be with my astronomic...

Re: episcopic adapter

Well, I already returned home and the beamsplitter and illuminator had already arrived from China. I spent one day printing the adapters (well, the printer, I did other things in the meantime) and another afternoon lining the interior of the entire system with black velvet, because as I was afraid, ...
