Thanks a lot, Inf+2, I tried that with much greater success. It still is a
very sensitive camera. I still wonder about the filters that are supposed
to cut light with not changing color. Are they called, Neutral? Anyway, I
don't have one but would get one if it would help. As I mentioned way back
when, if one turns the light intensity down a lot, even with the halogen,
the color shifts to the red.
Thanks for the new info. It does work better. Still wish someone could
chime in with the filter issue: what they are called and if they would
lessen intensity without a red-shift.
Appreciatively,
Ed

No, I didn't have any problem with the 1.3M camera. As a matter of fact, the sweet spot was right in the middle of the tubes threads. I haven't tried your...

Hi Ed, For a camera, it would be called a neutral density filter, I would think there would be a similar thing for a microscope. I assume you are intending...
