Re: lmscope.com digital camera adapter for c-mount

I took this picture of human blood cells using my digital camera. I have a
Olympus BH2 with a trinocular head. The picture quality isn't too bad but it
could be better:

What do you think? How does the picture quality comare to the more expensive
cameras? This is the first microscopic picture that I've taken.

Hi, there,

I am looking for an adapter that could connect a digital camera to our
Olympus BX-60 microscope. The microscope currently has a video camera on
it via a c-mount tube (U-PMTVC).

The digital camera we are interested in is Canon powershot A620/630. The
rotating screen and video capability look very good.

Then we found a Austria company making digital camera adapters for c-mount
at http://www.lmscope.com/index_e.html

Does anybody have any experience with this company? Or has anybody
connected the BX-60 with a Canon powershot A620 successfully?

Any idea will be appreciated.
