  2. When using the white balance one push button, you are supposed to put a neutral gray card below the camera. Not something white like an A4 printer paper sheet, because it can be overexposed; white balancing should really be done on a lower brightness level. For example a Caruba DGC-1 gray card, or the gray card in a Colorchecker Passport will do. I know a perfect white balance is not important for this application, but if you make youtube videos with this thing and you really care about accurate colors, then a proper gray card is your friend. Especially if you experiment with different lights (like the ring light, or something different), then you can quickly recalibrate.

  4. Hi Tony, great video! I'm looking for a microscope that I can use to view life in pond samples. I'm not able to use a compound microscope, nor scopes with eyepieces to view through, so I wonder if something like this can get close enough to the water sample (between 1-1.5 cm) to focus on the little things living in the water. I had one that allowed me to view, but the camera was awful and the videos were very blurry – it was a camera issue – although the pictures were really good. Would appreciate your opinion if you have a moment. Much thanks!

  5. One of the things I find it particularly odious in dealing with shipping to and from China is that China under UN guidelines can ship anywhere in the world at almost no cost because they claim they're a developing Nation yet the manufacturers shipping from China charge their customers as though they actually had to pay the full shipping. This is subsidized almost completely buy US and EU tax payers. I would also be cautious of back doors add spyware especially purchasing anything dealing with research.

  6. Hello, I have a DSLR camera, and I'm wondering if I could use it instead of the microscope camera you used here (in basically the same setup). I know I would need to get a c-mount adapter, but I'm worried the optics of the lens might not project nicely onto the DSLR sensor. Maybe something similar to an adapter with optics for a compound microscope? What do you think? Thanks for your time.

  7. Vulgar display of frugality when you save only 20 pounds for a base and not realize that clamping the positioning arm to your desk will be cumbersome and interfere with your soldering.

  13. Depth of field is an intrinsic property of an optical system – it is based on the numerical aperture (N.A.) of the lens. The larger the N.A. the shallower the depth of field. Resolution is also directly proportional to N.A. Therefore, the higher the resolution the shallower the depth of field.

    Depth of field is a feature, not a defect. Many people think that depth of field is an independent attribute of an optical device. In fact, for perfect optical systems, it is what it is. Ironically, imperfect optical systems generally have greater perceived depth of field than perfect systems, especially if spherical aberration is the imperfection. But that is only because the imperfect systems have a soft mushy focal region – a perfect system "snaps" to focus.

  14. you can look at a 4k feed with a 1080 monitor you will have more pixels and need to zoom in to the correct level – issue could pop up format wize – even tho i keep fixing my system the 10 bit video always returns to a green/purple

  15. An old blurry memory in head whispered something about a simple small metal tube (~2-5mm) between the camera and the lens, to get the closest focus point closer to the the lens. Wasnt it used in macro photography? Maybe this could be a solution for you, but maybe im totally wrong and my brain is just a laundry tumbler XD

  17. By the way: Interesting to see some vignetting on the corners when using the zoom as a 120x. I do not see that on my 180x setup where the upper adapter is 0.5x (The zoom-lens is the same…)

  18. About the barlow lens, did you try to increase the distance from the lens to the camera?
    I have used microscopes for PCB work for a long time. I would recommend a single light source at 10 o'clock to see depth. A ring light gives a very flat view.

  21. I've seen several cheap cameras and microscopes upscale images. E.g. they claim 1080p and it's really 480p upscaled 3x (sometimes 3.2x). I'm surprised you didn't zoom in and figure out the real resolution.

  23. My thoughts regarding the extra lens, it's expected if you buy something online the seller should state what it is and its capabilities as best as possible within its intended use. Many online Chinese sellers are either lazy or try to be smart because if you know it's not a good fit you won't buy, but if you take the risk that's their gain. So I would judge based on what vibe I'm getting.

    In this case what's the focus limits so if they never stated that then they left it up to interpretation and they should pay the return fee and learn lesson next time. If they were too lazy to add this information I would have pushed. Online customer rights are different because you don't have a chance to inspect a product.

    From doing this review you also made them money, but I guess you never mentioned, which was respectful of you.

  29. Hi, I see that you had spend some time talking to this provider. You’re good I see. Looking on eBay I find pricing around 80 dls, and you comment than you’ve made your video around pandemic time! That can explain price drop. I’m on a portable ultrasound for medical purposes. I see that price is around 2k, but I believe that with good experience on buying it should be more affordable. Let me know if you’re available for help me, I can help you doing a video with the equipment. Thanks in advance for your help.

  30. Hi Tony I watched this video of yours. I am a fan of digitizing 8/super 8 films and I also use Chinese cameras and enlargement lenses. I have exactly the 180x you show in your video. However, I have never been very lucky in choosing the camera (all with Sony IMX sensor) because all of them (even imx377) when connected to the USB port, transmit a purple-pink color with shades of green. This happens both with a bare sensor and with any lens I use. If I frame a white sheet, it doesn't display white but everything pink. After many useless purchases I finally found the first and only sensor that doesn't have that problem: the IMX317 4K. My question is: why does this happen? Because your imx377 transmits perfect colors and the same setup as mine, right? How can I solve it? Thank you!

  31. You should be able to adjust the aperture to change depth-of-field. With all that light, you might be able to get decent depth-of-field even with somewhat closeup pics. Keep in mind that with a very small aperture (high f/number), you'll get diffraction, meaning less sharp images. This isn't a camera thing, it's just optics and thust physics 🙂

  38. Looking at the analysis chapter of this video that's exactly why I didn't buy one of these cameras, I read through and compared data and nothing added up. When you consider that they (the mainland Chinese) paint pigs black to get a higher market price and make cardboard that is being sent to recyclers wet because they get paid by the kilo, and spray paint chillies to get a higher price, you soon realise that they print whatever numbers will bring them the highest price. They're a nation of fraudsters.

  39. After fiasco with Eakins IMX334 4k@30 1080p@60 fps (it has actually much better sensor IMX678, but it is only 30 fps at 1080p) I'm considering to buy this or another one (RF4 4KC1) with smaller sensor (visually from photos and review video where they show sensor on camera it's IMX415 or IMX715). Does your camera really provide 1080p@60 fps over HDMI? Both of your videos are only 30 fps so I cannot check visually through stepping frame by frame. I've seen 10th of 60 fps videos with cameras that claimed to be 1080p@60 fps and almost all of them in reality provide only 30 fps (and some of them, like Kaisi in metallic collor with red buttons, do not even provide 4K, toggling it in the menu does nothing, so it is ~100$ for 1080p@30fps lol), when frame stepping it takes 2 frames to refresh the image on the monitor connected over HDMI, and those few with real 1080p@60 fps looks really smooth even without frame stepping…

    P.S. Most of these cameras when connected both to HDMI and USB (like in your video) will provide the lowest FPS to both outputs, so if HDMI is 60 fps, but USB is 30 fps max, it will provide only 30 fps over HDMI in this case.

  43. After watching this, i also removed the base ( the metal base is a pain ) and threaded a 5mm acrylic with M10 + some wood and bolt it to the side of the table like yours, thanks for the idea !!!!!
