As a savvy consumer, you may already have spent good amount of time researching
and found various microscope adapter with lower price tag. And so question now could be, ghmm.... why would I choose Mecan adapter over others with lower price?h It is certainly most popular inquiry raised by our customer, and so we have set up this page to explain why you may want to choose Mecan adapter. |
Equipped with high Performance optical relay lense |
Quality of microscope adapter depends mostly on quality of its built-in relay lens. Instead of using microscope eyepiece as a relay lens, we develop each microscope adapter with specialized built-in lens which is designed specifically for respective camera models and its optical systems. Optimized in this way, Mecan adapter efficiently eliminates vignette and minimizes optical errors which is often associated with photomicrograph by consumer digital camera. . |

Astounding difference in image quality ! |
Comparison between Mecan adapter and the one with lower price tag from
brand A Image on the left below is taken with Canon EOS Rebel T2i + Mecan DSLR adapter NY-1S Image on the right below is taken with Canon EOS Rebel T2i + Lower price adapter from Brand A It is easy to notice the significance difference in an image quality, especially with a Resolutions in Peripheral Area and a Overall Color Rendering |

Following factors should be taken into account when taking photo with microscope.
Each factor can be cause for significant optical impairments and image quality could be compromised. |
1 | @Geometry distortion | The image at the peripheral area is distorted and out of focus (low resolution) compare to the center area. |
|
2 | @Linearity @(barrel distortion) |
Parallel lines would not look parallel (distorted) Square lines would take shape of barrel (barrel distortion) |
|
3 | @Light and shade gap | Difference in brightness level between center and peripheral area even when light is evenly diffused. |
|
4 | @Scotoma/Luminous point | White (luminous point) and Black spot (scotoma) may appear in the image because of internal]reflection in the lens and lens tube. |
|
5 | @Vignette | Errors in magnification setting or optical design, also fundamental structural defect could cause vignette. |
|
6 | @Color and Sharpness | Image color and sharpness can be greatly affected by the quality of lens aberration control and AR coating. |
|
We have been addressing these issues tirelessly over many years and now
succeeded to develop high-precision relay lens which would provide high quality and sharp microscopic photos ! |
