Which device do you use?

I ordered the cheapest one off amazon. My shaky hands forbid a steady shot. Any suggestions?

My eyes. I just look at the buds anymore. I'm too lazy to pull out the USB microscope.

I just shoot some close shots with my smartphone and then open the image and zoom in. Make sure the flash is off.

I would be too, but the smartphone is always in my pocket and it does a damn fine job. It's just an older Samsung S8+ These smart phone cameras are amazing nowdays.

This image was from my smartphone, taken up close as it would focus and zoomed in on the PC and cropped.

Hell ya. I just use an old S7 to take closeups with. It takes great shots, then I display them on the big screen tv and zoom in if I want. I take a lot of pics with my crappy old Ipad too, but the quality sucks compared to the S7. My wife and kids all have the newest Iphones and Samsungs in the Plus version, but I'm totally happy with my S7.

Can get them off my phone. But just not what im looking for. Thanks Anyways

Right on, I know its not necessary. Just some cool shots. The one I have magnifies up to 1000x, gotta make something to keep it stable. Maybe stabilize a selfie stick to the end of it so i dont have to hold it

Guess youre best to just look around try best buy or camera shops that might sell different lens attachments for phone..and set it on a tripod if your to shaky

I've got one of these.
Costed me about $ 3.00 including shipping.

That A should have been chopped 6 weeks ago.

Just look. All its trichomes are black.
