A new approach to low power photomicrography.

Several factors contribute to the poor quality often observed in photomicrographs made at low magnification. The oculars may be difficult to adjust to suit the individual observer; it may be difficult to focus the photomicroscope on the specimen; uniform illumination may be difficult to obtain and the photomontage techniques necessary for larger specimens require considerable skill.' We have developed two related methods which are quick and easy to use, and which only require a photographic enlarger to make high quality photomicrographs at low magnification.
