Notice and Preparation for Micro-Photography

1 X-Loupe® Basic Setup before using

After assembling, do the following check procedures before shooting.
(1) Loaded and ready the battery and memory card into the camera.
(2) Select the lens as desired and assemble it onto the X-Loupe® module.

(3) Turn on X-Loupe® and camera. The camera lens should stretch out, and there 

will be image circle observed on the LCD monitor (Shown at left ), and it’s normal. 

Then you have to adjust the camera to its maximum optical value, (refer to next 

page "Camara Setup before using", to start digital zoom), and this will be the 

standard optical zoom value for operating X-Loupe®. 

(4) Remember to turn OFF the camera flash whenever you are using X-Loupe® .

How to choose a proper magnification lens?

◎

Field of View: The larger magnification, the smaller field of view, 

    and vice versa.

◎

Depth of Focus: The larger magnification, the smaller depth of 

    focus, and vice versa

◎

Moving Speed of the object: The faster object is moving, and 

    the objective lens with smaller magnification should be used in order 

    to obtain clear pictures. It is useful while taking picture for a living 
    thing such as insects and the earthworm.
