I've see some real nice closeups of pics on this forum and was wondering what the pros (you know who you are) are using to achieve this. I've debating whether or not to pick up a usb digital microscope/camera 200x. But, I'm not sure what I should buy or where to buy it.

I use a Celestron usb microscope and paid less then $60 but I can't recommend it. My nephew has a Dino-light and it works great but cost a lot, I do recommend it. When I was shopping around for mine, my second choice was a Barska(i think that's how it's spelled) it cost $70, I wish I bought that one.

In fact, the current first thread addresses the specific question you have.
