Microscope for cartridge inspection

+1 @elliottbnewcombjr - USB digital microscope

@audiorusty unfortunately, that is correct. 

really tough to find a high powered scope like that for an inexpensive price. 

Elliot, I’d need a camera attachment for my Olympus to take photos. Can be bought for a few hundred bucks but haven’t bothered, in order to post photos.

lewm, everyone

lot of words, but easy to do and remember after a few times:

I copy from my cameras’ memory sticks to my computer, then,

I made a Virtual System on audiogon called ’misc info’ just to get images of stuff (scans, pics, ...) on audiogon’s web server

https://www.audiogon.com/systems/11519.

I upload from my computer any photo to that virtual system (open your LIST of virtual systems, not the system itself)

my list of Virtual Systems

the one you want to edit: right side, ’actions’, drop down box, pick ’edit’

next, pick ’images, ’choose a file’

options: local file; camera; direct link (from the web)

’choose a local file’, pick the image from your computer,

’open’, that uploads it.

scrolll down to ’save’

NOW IT’s ON THE WEB

then, in a post here, to insert any photo from this site or any web site:

open the pic on the web (in my ’misc info’ virtual system), 

right click any web image,

’Copy image address’

back to the window here

top row, 6th icon, ’Image’

click it, it opens with cursor blinking in ’url’, 

paste the image address you copied

size, if needed, I change the width to 555, the height automatically changes to maintain the aspect ratio

click OK (bottom right corner).

Presto, it’s in your post.

note: IF, in the future,  the image is moved/deleted where it came from, then it will not open

Of course, you can start with a photo on your phone, email it to yourself, download it to your computer.
