I used the original technique used for stereo photos starting with the dawn of photography. One camera with a shot taken for the left eye immediately followed by one for the right eye moving the camera or the subject slightly between the two. This works great for coins but has problems with moving objects. Who can name this city?
Thank you for posting this, I ended up getting one, I am hoping to play with it tonight but I am leaving for work trip in the morning, so we will see. I decided to go with the LCD screen because my neck has been aching the past few months and I knew a traditional microscope would not help. Thanks for the recommendation and your photos , that made the decision much easier. I went for the same model you have.
Yeah, I need me a stereo microscope for coins, and while I'm at it a compound microscope for studying bacteria and cell structures might not be a bad idea. I've always had a soft spot for biology. Let's see, once I deduct from my hobby money the expenses for my coin hobby, my fossil hobby, and my amateur astronomy hobby, that leaves me with exactly -150.00 to get my microscopes. Clearly it will be a while yet before I fulfill those dreams. Why, oh why, must I love those three hobbies so much, and why am I not filthy rich? Ok, excuse me while I go on a drug laden hippy retreat to ponder the meaning of life and why I can't afford 4 hobbies. Feel free to carry on topic.
