>Sorry to keep this thread going here, but the implication of Dr.
>Snow's summary on digital cameras is that several people have
>discovered means of adapting the Nikon 950 to photomicrography. I
>probably have not done an exhaustive search, but I have failed to
>find adapters in a variety of searches. I would guess that it would
>take a relatively simple tube with a c-type clamp at each end (I've
>had modest success in field situations with just positioning the
>camera over an ocular on a tripod).
>I would be grateful for knowing any hints or details of how people
>have adapted the 950 for photomicrography.
