FAQ: Which adapter solution would you recommend for me? Fitting the camera to my microscope’s eyepiece tube or its phototube?
If your microscope has a phototube, we recommend that you use an adapter to fit your camera to it.
A phototube solution has the following advantages:
-
Both eyepieces remain available for visual observation
-
There is a fixed mechanical connection between the phototube (C-mount) and the camera. The LM digital adapter with C-mount connection is firmly screwed to the phototube’s C-mount thread. Due to this optimum mechanical coupling, vibrations are reduced.
-
Through its vertical alignment, the phototube is better suited to carrying heavy photographic systems.
For professional use, we categorically recommend that you use the phototube.
