Re: [Homebrew_PCBs] Macro photography

2003-07-02 by Stefan Trethan

looks funny....
a lot of "tunnel view"

i achieved good results with pointing my webcam into the microscope.
i used it very close to the eyepiece and adjusted focus on camera.
but i modified it to get a greater focus range...


but it is a bad camera so image quality is bad.

maybe this helps.
