Have you considered a Raspberry Pi with camera, or camera mount with
your existing lens:

Photos and livestream will be easy to set up. You could try motioneye to
give you a livestream and take pictures on demand, or at defined time
intervals.

Greetings, hive mind,
We have an old (but still useful) Nikon SMZ stereomicroscope that we use for
mounting crystals. I’d like to attach a digital camera to the phototube, both
to capture crystal images for archival purposes, and also to live-stream as a
teaching tool.
I’d be grateful for any suggestions for an inexpensive option here.
When this camera was new we used it with an SLR that captured images on *film*
(this is where the students gasp). We’ve since gone through one digital camera
that probably still works, but the interface and software have become
obsolescent. Meanwhile, the microscope keeps on truckin’; interesting to
reflect on the relative lifetimes of analog vs. digital tools…
Thanks in advance for any suggestions,
Pat
