I have a newly bought olympus cx33 microscope. I want to get a camera for it. Anybody have this microscope and put a camera mount? is omax a good brand? How will I know if it will fit? I dont see any camera mounting instructions in the manual or at their website. TIA
 
Curious. What were your reasons you picked this microscope over others?
I bought this microscope model and brand because it is the only available microscope here in our place. 99% of our lab microscope use Olympus though they have the higher ones like the BX series.
Any suggestions for the camera? the cx33 has a camera port but I don't know what specific camera to buy....
 
I recommend you to buy usb 3.0 camera, I use USB 3.0 camera Point Gray Flea3, USB 2.0 camera UCMOS, USB 2.0 camera SCMOS, USB 2.0 camera ScopeTek are also good.
