so I started with the carson eflex was a great scoop but I found it to little of pixels so I wanted more lol. I bougt a 12mp and it turned out to be crap res was only 720 so sent it back ,but after research found the cats meow for 50 bucks https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B...e=UTF8&psc=1it a Mustcam uvc microscope wit true 5mp resolution which is very nice because normal apps pick it up right away. Pros: low price adjustable mp 1.3@(1280x1024) to 5mp@(2592x1944) easy focus cons: no light diffuser very bright lights but can be turned down Stand is decent but can angle it have to make your own diffuser lol. picture differnce: Carson Eflex  Mustcam @2.1mp  Mustcam @5mp with quick diffuser  i hope this can help some, just got it last night so havnt ad to much time to play with it. 00 And forgot close up @ 5mp  Edited by Eyez 01/13/2021 11:44 am

Quote: a more suitable light diffuser Sometimes covering the light with a piece of tissue paper makes a pretty good diffuser.

Eyes, great find with reasonable price. I was thinking that you adjust the light and color with a photoshop app. However , what type of camera did you use? I am trying like crazy to set this cyber shot so I can take photos. I can the. Plug the USB into my computer and use the photoshop program I have downloaded....

@ psuman08 think I got it pretty dialed in had to make light diffuser from one of my wifes ring molds for the leds fit perfect and made a cone from an aspirin bottle fit perfect lol   MY 1994 Scarface LMC got it so light wasnt so reflective
