“Blurb says:
"The base of the stage is held by two screws".
Not on mine - the base seems to be permanently attached. Not a problem for me, but may be for others.
It would be really nice if you offered a dedicated source of illumination for the stand - perhaps ring-shaped - that could be controlled from an RPi. This would help me to take time-lapse photos of crystal growing.
Otherwise, a decent product.”
“Having fun looking at different objects! Pros: easy to assemble. Would have been nice to receive some printed instructions. Robust. Nice touch leaving space in base for pi and holes for cables.
Cons: Would have liked an adjustable stage that can be lit from below. Perhaps available in aftermarket.”
“This is a must have product if you have the new high quality camera for the Pi. The lens is very good quality, not plasticy, and is c mount so the new camera unit fits perfectly. The stand is of good quality and very stable. There are several adjustments and a fine adjustment thumb wheel. A very good product and very well made. Couple that with Pimoroni service and it's a winner.”
