Taking Pictures - Bresser National Geographic 20X Mode D'emploi

Important:
If you turn on the illumination on the Digital Microscope in a very bright room or near a window on a sunny day,
the image on the monitor can appear much too bright. This is because the camera is very sensitive. Too much
light overpowers the fi ne details of the observation object. In this case, you must completely shut off the light on
the Digital Microscope, so that all the details are visible on the monitor.
