| This photograph of human chromosomes was done with a Nikon SKe trinocular microscope I restored and upgraded with modern Nikon microscope optics. Overall magnification of this image is approximately 750x . I find the Nikon D7000 to be a good camera to use on this setup. The 1.5x magnification of an APS sensor adds extra amplification. In addition all Nikon professional cameras have a very convenient mirror lock setting -- something that is absolutely essential when shooting through a microscope. |
wow, human chromosomes look so cool under a microscope. I would love to see that in person.
