<p>[QUOTE="frech001, post: 2677956, member: 20616"]SuperDave, nice pictures. The options available now are improving all the time. Sure beats the time consuming expensive outfit I started with 40+ years ago. And then I had to wait for a week to even see if the photos were what I wanted. Here is a close up from the 5MP Aven. I really like seeing what the photo will look like on my computer before I save the image so I can modify the lighting for the effect I'm looking for. The 5MP provides enough resolution to further enlarge a photo. The lighting on this 9 was a bit too strong, but it demonstrates the magnification potential, which is achieved by simply moving the scope closer to the object and then focusing. To achieve the sharpest image I use the software digital enlargement to maximum then adjust the focusing wheel manually and the copy stand adjustment to optimize focus. The focusing wheel on the Aven is not very sensitive, allowing for a rough focus, which can be checked and fine tuned by the elevating adjustment knob on the copy stand.
