I decided to try the subject combo out on a coin I pulled from a group of foreign errors. Since my microscope still refuses to play nice with Windows 7, this may be a new way to get some close-up photos:

    A tad blurry, but certainly has the magnification and detail... since I am now learning how to use an Android phone, maybe one day I can post a picture....image... probably not... Cheers, RickO

    Do you have a way to hold the subject and the camera steady?

    What microscope do you have?
