Hi Folks,

I have a few questions. I own an old L W Scientific stereo microscope. I also own a Nikon D70 digital camera. Will the following product

http://store.amscope.com/ca-nik-slr.html

able me to shoot close enough shots of different varieties. It is my understanding the this product is only 2x magnification. Since I am not using my camera lens nor the eyepeice of the scope, how is 2x mag strong enough to show doubling on the coin? Is there something else needed? Any help would be appreciated!! My old setup was an old Casio digital camera which lens diameter was the same diameter as the eyepiece of the scope was able to shoot 30x shots which were fairly decent. The good old days, the camera has since gone and being out of the variety hunt, I never thought of variety shooting when I purchased the Nikon duh! I also see the usb cameras that you can use but have read a few threads not favoring this setup.

I am just getting back into and we all know that shots your varieties is a must!!

Thanks everyone
