<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Doverboy, post: 574499, member: 18278&quot;]xtrmbrdr,</p><p><br /></p><p>Thanks for the pics, much appreciated.&nbsp; I&#039;m also in the market for a scope and have been looking at the Dino-Lite series myself.&nbsp; I&#039;m VERY pleased to learn that you can toggle the LEDs on and off.&nbsp; As far as lighting without the LEDs on, there are some pretty simple ways to get good lighting.&nbsp; Pick up a couple of cheap goose-neck lamps and use &quot;natural daylight&quot; bulbs in them and place them to the sides of the subject.&nbsp; Experiment with the placement for better highlighting, no glare, etc.&nbsp; Another useful tip, I believe, is to create a simple &quot;tent lighting&quot; effect.&nbsp; This can be accomplished by using a translucent one-gallon milk jug with the bottom cut off and a hole cut for the camera to focus through.&nbsp; This will create a diffused effect for the lighting as well.</p><p><br /></p><p>Now that you&#039;ve had more time to experiment with your scope, what do you think?&nbsp; I&#039;m already impressed with the photos you&#039;ve posted, but have you improved on your technique?</p><p><br /></p><p>Thanks![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
