Same hoverfly, different optics. And background. :-) Should be less taxing on human eyes this time.
The portrait angle is from above, to show the three extra ocelli (eyespots?).
Mike Wilson has supplied a box full of old microscope lenses, and I tried one out tonight; an old English brand, Charles Baker of London. Magnification is 3.5x, and total bellows extension about 15 cm.
It's comparable to the Wild Heerbrugg 4X, but has better edge sharpness, and seems to have somewhat better resolution.
