A friend introduced me to the Raspberry Pi single board computer and this opened up a world of possibilities. With the recent release of the HQ PiCamera, I decided to try it out for macrophotography. The camera is attached to a cheap industrial microscope lens as shown in the photo 1. The camera is connected to the Raspberry pi. The microscope is capable of up to 2.25x magnification.
