Hi Allen,
I also wanted a similar camera, and tried two. I now use the Moticam
1000 (microscope.com). It is adequate, but when projected on a screen
for viewing by an audience is nowhere as good as actually looking
through the eyepiece of the scope.
I've also used a Videoflex camera going to a TV, which I've found to
be very good for showing groups either macro or through the microscope
views.
However, I am still looking for a truly clear camera that can be
hooked to a computer. I have viewed a few at some labs, and have yet
to be impressed. For that matter, I've viewed nosema spores through a
few very expensive scopes at labs--none have come close to the
inexpensive Omano36 (microscope.com) detailed at my website.
I found in my searching a website with incredible photomicrographs of
fungi, and corresponded with the author. For his photos, he simply
held his digital camera against the eyepiece of the scope, just as I
do. I find that on some scopes, that I need to space the camera back
a little.
I also would like to hear from anyone who has found a scope camera
that gives truly crisp and accurate images to the computer screen.
