HORIZONTALLY Mounted Camera. The obvious answer to the horrendous instability of a camera up in mid-air on the end of a vertical tube. The vulnerability aspect is also important in the Classroom.

DIRECT PICKUP of image... as opposed to having an intermediate relay system. The pure primary image formed by the Microscope objective is placed on the camera's "Retina" unsullied by aberrations caused by questionable lens systems. The rationale behind the "relay" lens is to allow the use of cheap 1/3 inch or 1/4 inch chips by squeezing the image down to fit these pickups. Don't be fooled by resolution claims that do not take into account what you are doing to the image BEFORE it reaches the Camera!
SOLID Camera Mount... If the camera is mounted on the most massive part of the Microscope, it will be less likely to lose centration and alignment. The DEMOSCOPE mount assures this yet makes it easy
to dismount the camera for other uses... and when you re-mount it.... its dead center again!
BEAMSPLITTER in housing...A glass prism is superior to a (cheaper) mirror. The glass Beam-splitter unique to the DEMOSCOPE means you can mount a second camera .(For example, a 35MM SLR Camera for stills or CD ROM.)
SMOOTH FOCUSSING and STAGE CONTROLS ... When you're chasing a protozoan around a slide your fingers have to be real nimble.. without proper controls you are lost... and so is the Protozoan!
RESEARCH GRADE OPTICS AND PHASE CONDENSER... VideoMicroscopy is like Photography... Except that the Microscope becomes your LENS and its illuminator becomes your studio lighting. Would you use a toy lens and a 40 Watt bulb to shoot a $1000 per hour Model?
