Re: Advice on Microscope

Hi Sandy,

The older B&L microscopes were the workhorse scopes for labs and industry
for a long time, and are still well supported. I have a B&L zoom
binocular scope and find it to be a great tool. You can look around and
get a digital camera to scope eyepiece adapter on line
(www.edmundoptics.com is one place). If you find one that is specifically
for your camera, it is less expensive than a universal adapters.
