SUMMARY Anaxial illumination has been used so far for either enhancement of visual acuity, or three‐dimensional (3‐D) measurements of static objects. Here we report the use of anaxial illumination for 3‐D tracking of fast‐moving objects, with only slight modifications to the standard microscope. To achieve this, we have investigated highspeed recording of stereoscopic images in two different set‐ups.
