Hello it's me again,

does anyone of you have experience to set up a cheap CCD black and white
camera on the FACStar Plus to monitor the stream and the droplet
formation... BDIS sells apparently a piece for more than 5000$ but as far
as I know one can get already CCD BW cameras for less than 400$ with a
reasonable resolution.

The problem is that you have either to find an amplifying objective for the
camera, or place the CCD directly behind the ocular (or instead ??) of the
"microscope".. however there seem to be no adapters available to fit the
CCD instead of the ocular on a microscope....

Well thank you very much for any suggestions or hints to set this up
cheaper than for 5000 $...

Merci en avance,

Matthias
