A Phillips webcam (price  70 USD) was mounted on an Olympus BX60 light microscope in order to record the images produced by the lens optical system. The quality of the images is comparable to those obtained by a standard one-chip charge coupled device (CCD) camera. The handling and implementation of the whole system has proven to be very easy due to the use of a normal micro computer and standard windows compatible software. Moreover, the presented method allows to record movies of investigated samples. |
