    Nice video. I have a acromatic microscope and it´s very hard to film protists with focus, especially when they don´t stop moving. Now I know that worth make a upgrade.

    Good video. What's up with the prices though? Everything seems to be way more expensive. Achromatic lenses are costing me up to 100 euros, plan achromats several hundreds and apochronats several thousands. Did you get them secondhand or am I looking for premium brands only?

  • @diettoms
    @diettomsАй бұрын

    If you’re looking at infinity corrected lenses, that sounds about right. The finite lenses I use are considerably cheaper since they are also older and technically outdated (but are still excellent for hobbyist microscopy).

  • @normaalewoon6740
    @normaalewoon6740Ай бұрын

    @@diettoms Thanks, finite apochromats are cheaper indeed. Are you aware of finite microscopes with köhler illumination? The field diaphragm improves contrast by cutting off any light outside the field of view, which scatters around in the tube with normal illumination. It seems like a very good thing to have.

  • @diettoms
    @diettomsАй бұрын

    Yes, Koehler illumination has been around for a long time. Most clinical grade microscopes from before the infinity optics era will have Koehler. The Olympus BH2 (which I’m using in the video) is a Koehler scope and one that I highly recommend.

    Would you be able to see this with your naked eyes in the quality of the first part of this video, or do you need a camera to adjust exposure in order to get the correct blackness and contrast?

  • @diettoms
    @diettomsАй бұрын

    Usually you won’t get a super inky black background using this method due to light scatter. The wider you make the obscuring circle, the darker it’ll be. For the blackest naked eye background, you need an oil-immersion darkfield condenser. Those throw the light at highly oblique angles leaving very little scatter toward the lens.

    Great video and review! We bought this microscope hoping to capture content similar to what was showcased. However, we're not entirely convinced that it lives up to its billing as a tool for 'content creation.' Despite our high expectations, we found it unsuitable for our needs in teaching about bacteria on our channel. Unfortunately, it didn’t capture the type of content we aimed for, making it impossible to effectively teach safety and sanitation. We're disappointed, and the microscope now sits unused in its box.

    How did you get the colorful background at 7:54. Also are all these backgrounds achievable for a microscope with a fixed condenser ? Something like Swift 350B

    why not just print your desired filter pattern on a transparent foil with an inkjet printer? or even better, insert a transparent lcd display in place of your filter and edit the desired shape in real time with an app. or why not to leave a filter out completely and replace the light source with a a full color led panel or an oled display the will shine the desired color pattern directly? at the simplest, you could just create your color pattern in a drawing app in your phone and then place the phone under the stage/sample. fingers crossed!

    if only this also worked on my Olympus scopes haha, super cool discovery. Do you think the oblique and rheinberg filters from the JTTM scope will fit Olympus cx scopes or the earlier 160mm bh scopes?

    Thanks for the demonstration! If I just want to measure fluorescence intensity of fairly large droplets (20 µm diameter) using photo-multiplier tubes, do I need an objective with high NA? Since more light passes though it, it should show brighter fluorescence signals, right?

    Hello, thanks for your amazing videos that explain advanced techniques for the newbie. I interested to do live blood analysis. Can this 100x oil immersion objective be combined with your darkfield technique for a successful result? Thanks

  • @Leofitz77
    @Leofitz776 ай бұрын

    Thank you for this creative 'tech-hack' which can make dark-field microscopy available to those without an extravagant budget! Would this version of dark-field be sufficient to provide good results for live blood analysis? Are the Swift 380 or the linked Bolioptics microscope be useful for this type of analysis? If one doesn't own an iPhone with an amazing camera what add-on digital camera head, or small monitor, would you recommend for a trinocular like the Swift 380T ? Thank you for sharing your expertise!

    Thank you for these videos and the tips you've provided. I watched your "Quick Tips-Dark Field microscopy' video and had a question. I posted it here as its your most recent video. Wil the method using the Swift 380B microscope that you demonstrated there, allow for live blood analysis? Would there be a slightly different microscope that's best for live blood analysis? Finding a low-cost solution like this would be amazing. Thanks
