[QUOTE="TyCobb, post: 3244700, member: 99137"]This just arrived this morning and already in love with it. I looked at copy stands, but I really needed a general purpose tripod and this works brilliantly due to being able to put it in a horizontal position.

I ended up paying $114 for it so it worked as of Friday. [MEDIA=youtube]1ksyz4xkdqY[/MEDIA] Skipping the camera because that's just an open-ended can of worms of opinions and need vs. want and what kind of pictures you are wanting to take. If you are wanting to get really really close and focus on a specific spot, you'll probably want to look at a DSLR and pickup a macro lens if you don't like the USB microscope route. Probably the 2nd best thing I picked up was this lamp because it is so movable and clamps. It has 2 lights. One fluorescent ring and the other a standard light socket for incandescent bulbs which can be turned on/off individually.
