Portable light box
The light tent is the most convenient solution for making professional photos of a wide range of products: by placing products in the tent and illuminating the tent from the outside, you obtain the best exposure for professional product photos. I wanted my own foldable and portable light tent with the extra comfort of having its own build in lighting.Researchers Turn iPhone Camera into Cheap Microscope with $40 Lens
A team of researchers at UC Davis have come up with a super-cheap way of turning an iPhone into a microscope — useful for diagnosing diseases in areas where medical equipment is hard to come by.
Double lens reverse macro for an SLR.
1) An SLR or DSLR. 2) A zoom lens, around 200mm works really well. 3) A fast prime lens, with an aperture ring. 4) A macro coupler. 5) A tripod in most cases.I may see if I can get hold of a more powerful loupe, mine is a 7x magnification & produces some good results but I would love to try a 10x or even a 15x magnification model. Lighting is a problem, the on camera flash is not a big help in low light as the subject is far too close to the camrea body so I may look into some sort of slave flash or possibly an led arrangment around the body of the loupe.
Plans for improvments.
