Jim1953 Pillar of the Community United States 2600 Posts	Posted 03/26/2008 09:37 am Dyna, I have a Omano 3344 Tri-nocular 7.5 to 45 If I remember correctly on the magnification. Most decent scopes have about 3/4" field of view at minimum magnification, over simplified. I have purchased a "Barlow lens" that attaches to the large objective lens which reduces the magnification but increases the field of view. I believe mine is a .75 Barlow and it reduces mag. by 50% and increases FOV by 50%. I also believe that there are different adjustment strengths in the Barlow lens and I believe getting to a FOV that will take Morgans should not be that hard. The Barlow lens screw on and off very easily so going from normal operation to large FOV is very easy. If memory serves me, the Barlow costs about $74. I bought my scope from https://www.microscope.com/advanced...3344&x=0&y=0 Hope this has been some help. Jim Report this Post to the Staff
Pocket Change New Member United States 17 Posts	Posted 04/14/2008 3:29 pm I just picked up one of the Dyno-Lite microscope/cameras. With the table top stand it can handle anything from full pics to 230x magnification of details. Largest coin I've taken full picks of with it so far is the Silver Eagle, but it could handle a bit larger if needed. Report this Post to the Staff
