hello everyone,

i've been looking at compound microscopes and would like very much to
get digitized images of my samples. i've found one microscope that
initially looked good -- the Celestron 44340 LCD Digital LDM
Biological Microscope -- until i read the reviews. so i thought i'd
talk to you about how to get digital images from a microscope,
preferably a binocular compound 'scope. since you are experts at
getting digital images from spotting 'scopes, surely you might have a
few suggestions for how i can adapt this technology to microscopes? if
so, i'd love to learn your techniques and tricks. and yes, i plan to
share this information with the public on my Guardian blog, alongside
the images i get. (i plan to publish a microscope image on the blog
every week).

cheers,
