Microscopes-what a tool. I still remember my first view into a microscope, as a child of perhaps five or six years old. What looked like a empty water droplet, when placed under a microscope, suddenly was filled with teeming life, almost like looking into the night sky and seeing stars for the first time. Since then, we have used microscopes for mineralogy, surgery, blood work, urine observations, small-scale engraving, observation of surface finish, mineral identification, structural assessment, tissue assessment, polarized light stub studies, differential Crystal analysis, histology, pathology work, eye exams, splinter removals, bacterial observations, electronics work, the list goes on and on. what can we say - we like used microscopes.

model MC 63 35mm auto winding camera with exposure control. For microscopy,
microscope photographs and photomicrograph applications.
Features:
This unit, using the overall photo timer, will take a picture once every time interval, and automatically advance the film, unattended. for example when the overall photo timer is set to 10 hours, the unit will take a picture through the microscope once every 10 hours, and then auto wind and advanced the film. With this setting, and using a 36 exposure roll of 35mm film you will have one exposure every 10 hours for 360 hours. In this way, compared to growth shots, and comparative studies over time, can be done,
