Melev,
That's one of my favorites too. Believe it or not, it was taken at night with a flashlight!

The white "streaks" are micro bubbles. Sometimes you just cant turn off the pumps to get "that shot"...

Nice shot, Nagel!

Thanks Rich!

I'm finally getting some sweet shots with the digicam. Nikon Coolpix 5000.

The only problem is, while my tank shots are getting better, I'm still horrible at taking shots of other things, and the wife really wants some pics of our puppies that are not blurred!

Hi DEQbob,

No Macro, just a camera adapter direct to the Mesoscope.

Barry.

 

[BeakerBob]

Barry, I was just reading about the Mesoscope. Does it have the ability to adjust the aperture to control depth-of-field? Or can you use the camera's aperature control?

DEQbob, The Mesoscope comes with a mechanical aperture that is interchangeable between both optical systems, or can be removed for very low light levels. The optical design has been developed to provide maximum depth of field. What type of camera do you have?

 

[BeakerBob]

Barry, have an Olympus Camedia and a Nikon D70.

DEQbob, How do you find the depth of field of these cameras/lenses.

 

[BeakerBob]

Barry, I use a 90 macro lens on the Nikon in manual mode to stop down to f/22. You can use the newer autofocus lenses and go aperture priority or in the close-up programmed mode to get greater depth-of-field (it increases the aperture and slows down the shutter speed).

DEQbob, what do you to observe the life within your system.
