Comparison of image quality between the compact camera (A) and the professional setup (B) with the specimen occupying the same proportion of the frame. A detail is shown below. The compact camera was set up 5 cm from the specimen with the optical zoom at 1×, 29 images (narrow setting) were manually stacked. The professional setup outperforms the compact camera, producing a sharper image when specimens larger than a few centimetres are set to fill the frame optimally.
