Today I use the following equipment when chasing and shooting inclusions:
- Wild M400 Photomakroskop with 2x auxilliary lens which gives magnifications up to 80x.
- Nikon D40X DSLR camera with remote control for exposures.
- Own design of adapter fitting the M400. The adapter is adjustable and can be used with many different brands of DSLR cameras if using the right T-ring.
- Olympus 150W Halogen Fiber Optic Light Source. Different light guides.
- LED "Snake lights" with replaced LED's of 20K mcd light intensity.
- 2x22W IKEA halogen spotlights.
- Gem clip with side light slits and a magnetic holder making it positionable anywhere on the base.
- Patience
