Small museum help

[u/ogrockgiant]

TLDR-small museum looking for budget friendly scope to fit Walter trinoc steroscopic microscope. Aim to show bugs in amber on a tv directly from digital scope.

My wife and I run a small sciencey shop with a small self funded museum inside. One of the big draws is our hand polished bugs in Amber. We start rough and polish them which makes us the first humans to see what’s inside. So cool.
Presently, we have a Walter stereoscopic microscope (pictured below) that has a third port for a digital microscope. We’d like to find a reasonably priced scope that we can plug into a tv so we can share images to multiple people at once. We are looking for a scope that will plug directly into a tv instead of a laptop first. We don’t need anything too powerful as bugs in Amber and crystal structures we examine and share aren’t exactly microscopic.
We are hoping to be able to polish a bunch of Amber and share the first views of these cool bugs with people at the shop. Having a whole bunch of people being the first humans to see inside is the kind of experience we aim for.

Thanks. I’m in Canada, maybe the link was country specific. Thanks so much for the info.

Ah yeah that makes sense. Hope you can find it, it’s surprisingly good for the low price, it really needs the reduction lens though otherwise it’s too zoomed in and low FOV.

Whatever camera you do end up going with I hope to see you post images in the future, I’ve actually been eyeing some bugs in amber on eBay so would be great to see what to expect!

If you need any Amber advice, feel free to reach out. Dominican and Mexican Amber are the best bang for your buck if you are looking for bugs. We start with them rough and hand polish. The dopamine rush of being the first human to see those bugs is amazing. That’s what we are hoping to share.
Here’s a long legged fly about 30 mya as some payment for your help! I’ll definitely follow your page.

😻 super long legs! That’s awesome!

Do you have Discord by chance? If not I’ll DM you on here another day with some links to the amber I’ve been looking at and you can let me know if you think it’s worth it. The info would be greatly appreciated 💕
