<p>[QUOTE=&quot;desertgem, post: 3245748, member: 15199&quot;]Resolution and flatness of field is a primary concern with any low resolution camera. many depend on software to enlarge and &quot;sharpen&quot; images, thus inserting false pixels in the photo.&nbsp; 3-5mp resolution is normal. Most such cameras have plastic lens rather than optical glass. A camera ( even in a cell phone )usually has a much higher resolution. Today 20mp or better is common and can be done in a raw format where extra pixels are added. A 5 mp camera in the hands of an expert often is much better than a Good camera in the hands of someone who doesn&#039;t bother to use it properly, a camera such as a 5mp Canon Point and shoot can be focused down a microscope tube and give good results. When you see a photo where there appears to be tiny square or rectangular blocks , that is the result of false pixels, IMO. Jim[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
