35mm SLR Photomicroscopy

Capturing video or photographic images through Meiji Techno microscopes is a very common and relatively straightforward practice. Nearly all Meiji Techno microscopes are available in trinocular models designed for just this purpose. The components listed below will allow you to mount 35mm, video, or digital cameras on any of our trinocular microscopes.

35mm Photomicroscopy

You will need three components to attach a 35mm camera body to Meiji Techno trinocular microscopes:

1. The appropriate T-2 adapter ring for your SLR camera body:

2. A photo eyepiece, available in the following magnifications:

MA512   2.5x magnification MA500   3.3x magnification (with reticle mount) MA508   5x magnification	Photo Eyepiece
Photo eyepieces perform the same function as a standard 35mm camera lens (i.e. focusing the image at the plane of the film)

3. One of two MA150 series camera attachments:

MA150/50   straight-tube camera attachment
MA150/60   camera attachment with built-in focusing eyepiece

These are used to mount the camera/ T2 assembly to the photo tube on the microscope.
