Cheryl, You are a top netter! Good! I found a camera plus software for 750 !! Not so many Megapixels, but a good start, really. I'll keep my eyes open on that page.

Hi, is there possibly a subdivision for skinflints in TechNet? I want a good microscope camera and a program for PC. There are numerous of brands, most of them very good, like Olympus, Nikon, Kappa etc. But the price! 5,000 USD and up. It's robbery. You get a super system SLR digital camera for 1,000. Much more advanced than a microscope camera. The microscope camera does not even use a advanced lense, the projection just leaves the trinocular and hit the chip. There must be a way to buy good digital stuff and put together with a cheap image processing program. You may buy a cheap digital camera, design a C-ring adapter and use the framegrabber in Pinnacle 10, just one example. Won't cost more than 1,000. I know in principal what to do, but there use to be people who are very creative on these things. Anyone who have a good proposal?
