Hello thread I have... a wide selection of pond and aquarium... stuff. I sampled some creeks when I was out in NC and keep fish outdoors, plus a small collection of daphnia to feed my smaller fish. I have all sorts of weird stuff living in water I am a... die hard fan? of this channel, "Life in Jars?" he does all sorts of sealed ecosystems but also does weird stuff like.. . just leave a giant tupperware box full of water outside, and sees what happens, then puts it under the microscope: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TdJ86zahYOE&t=578s Timestamp skips to where he just grabs a test tube of water and then throws it under a microsocope (skip ahead about ~1 minute) Also while I'm on the subject, another channel, "Journey into the Microcosmos" has been putting out some A+++ quality microscopy footage :5: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=io731XY8fH8 Anyways, yeah, there seems to be an alarming number of student grade microscopes, seems like you could go buy scientific grade lenses and plug them in and get some good video out? Any suggestions on what I need to accomplish to see stuff like rotifers (0.1–0.5 mm) ? What does a microscope creating video look like for the first video; and then what do I need to do to make stuff look like the second video  Scrubbing though that video looks like they are mostly rolling along at 100x and 200x but occasionally bump up to 600x and more rarely 400xScarodactyl posted:Also I did a video zooming in on a golden sunstone rupee that I faceted.

I feel like microscopes are like guitars where you can spend $300 for a serviceable one, or $2500 for the one you should have spent in the first place My heart says $300 but my gut feeling is I'm not going to have something serviceable for less than $450?
