2. How Take pictures from microscope field
1- Start holding the lens of the camera of your m-phone at about 10 cm from one of the
eyepieces of the microscope.
2-Identify the pinhead light at the center of the eyepiece of the microscope.
3-Turn the flash of your camera off. Now frame that pinhead light on the screen of your m-
phone, holding the phone with one hand.
4-Now join the thumb and the index finger of the other hand to form a ring around the
eyepiece. This ring will work as a cushion between the phone and the eyepiece supporting the
m-phone and protecting from external light as a soft washer.
5- Carefully keeping the light at the center of the screen of your m- phone, slowly approach the
lens to the eyepiece never loosing the frame, and see how the pinhead light widens to the point
that you can recognise the microscopic field.
6-Approach further until you reach the soft washer made of your joint thumb and index fingers,
and let the m-phone perfectly adhere to that cushion, then gently but firmly press the m-phone
against your fingers until you see a perfect round image of the microscopic field and no external
light is allowed between the lens and the eyepiece of the microscope.
7-Keep your m-phone steady, check that the microscopic field is perfectly in focus and take the
picture.
8-If at any moment you loose the frame of the microscopic field, start again from step one.
