My home microscopy of lake water organisms with my two student microscopes lead to my active participation in Micscape Internet magazine available at the web site http://www.microscopy-uk/mag. An article in Micscape by Dave Walker, http://www.microscopy-uk.org.uk/mag/artian02/toptips8.html. played a critical role in my decision to purchase a Nikon Coolpix 995 for my home microscopy. Dave's article referenced a far more thorough article on fitting a consumer digital camera to older style microscopes: The New Microscopy by Peter Evennett, Proceedings RMS, Vol. 35 (4), Dec 2000.
