Yes, but all my webcams only have low resolution, 640x480 at best, and a  
pretty bad picture quality at that resolution.

I've seen how a cheap digital camera can be modified to work with a  
microscope, also by removing the optics. I think that would give  
reasonable results and i'll try some day when i get hold of a cheap camera.
