I have recenty invested some time and investigated and compared aperture closure against stacking at maximumn resolution of the lens. The result is quite clear: Below the 10 cm field of view range in digital photography stacking outperforms always single shot with smaller aperture. And as it can be automated I now do it regulary. So my phototype is now often full view with layer composition. My only used f-stop is 8. This gives (typical) the best resolution. The camera is not important as long it has the right firmware and software to communicate with software tools, it´s the lens, the light and the eye of a photographer patient enough to train for skills. To turn photography in good photography is not one big multiplier, many small increments make sucess.

its important yes, take a crop on a photo take with a canon 1000D and a 5D mark II and look the difference, lens its the first on the importance, but if a good lens work on a not good camera, even useless take photos.

Bridge or compact, close-up and microscopic objective are able to done the same result and maybe better when technic is good. Look my photo and others with reflex.... Do you see a difference ?
With 1000 euros you have all for take all photo... until 0.6 mm of FOV....
And POTD dont' mean quality.... Sorry but a lot of are not the best....

Of course, when you become good, you can spend more money to get a better camera and produce better results.

i have offer a thing : Exchange some microminerals to take same photo of these. All reflex have refused this proposal....Afraid ?
The reason is simple, reflex is not important pour micromineral photo. The difference come with the quality of lenses....
If you want i can make photo of all specimen than you want to compare my system at 1000 euros (with camera) and your system. For this time money don't give avantage. Quality is done by photograph, eyes and intelligence....
Also, same methods give same results. Often, photo are too dark in mindat... Dark cover defaults but don't give good photo. For me minerals are living not dead. Colour, light is important. So Matteo for that you are in the best without problem for others we are not on the same wave lenght.
And today the POTD have been selected by friends for friends. Yes it's a good photo (for this time) but on an other forum, this photo has already been selected haha ! I can said when french photo is selected or not.... Do you want a list ?

I not have problems, I have photographed minerals photographed from other photographers and you can see the difference. And just for say some of your photos are many out of focus or without contrast, others is ok, this is strange why or all photos come out of focus or all photos are right. I understand the out of focus on a crystal of under 1 mm, but not on area of 3-4 mm

i don't work for magazine... They don't paid in France.... I prefer work for others people who want photo for book etc. And magazine are not quality enough for than i paid for that.
Sometimes i work fastly and it's not important to make the best photo.... An other problem on mindat is the resize. I work with a native size of 1150 pixel (for photo) and the compression give low result.... But i can increase the level sometimes too ! I don't optimise for mindat.
For seen the real photo it's possible to click on but not all times.
Ok matteo, for me magazine (i don't buy magazine....) are not important. If you want compare it's possible. You can send what you want just for seen the difference between a professionnal like you and an amator like me. I promise to do the best with than i can.
But when i see your photo on mindat, i can make photo at the same level (or better ? haha). I know that. But perhaps it's false, give me a lesson :). But friendly...
In fact this small world is full of sharks.... But for me don't recognise my work is a problem. In these case, i can increase quality... It's just for pleasure to compare with reflex. Because reflex are for professionnal (no ?) and others can't done so well. Matteo you speak like a professor and i 'm not a student. Just make photo with my small material (yes for 1000 euro you can take like me). Sometimes you said very interessant thing but please try to be friendly. We are not in the world of lux.
Camera = 300 euros
Micrometric system = 100 euros
Plate = 50 euros
Tube and ring = 100 euros
Close-up = 120 euros
two Objectives = 200 euros
Lens tube = 130 euros.
With this minial system fov is between infini and 0.6 mm for field of view.
Perhaps i can made an effort for mitutoyo .... I m' not sure than nikon is less good.
No money is not important....

calculate my photos on mindat its many resized, normaly on mindat I put photos 800x534 but now I have start to put photos of 1000x667 but normaly the photos for magazine, books etc.. go for 3543x2362 but I not put on mindat for copyright questions, but they not lost quality, is this the nice of the full frame, you cut but no lost, start to cut with a normaly reflex or crop, and you seen how many nice pixel squares you seen, for not speack of the grain in the photo. And I work with JPG, not RAW.

depend from how much you take photos, me its 20 years, and only from 4 years I take photo of minerals. I did a lot of bets on photo theme, with others who think that a simple compact work as a full frame, but they have always lost the bet.

As we can see from the many excellent photographs here, the camera (as long as it meets the minimum technical requirements) really is secondary. The pixel level quality only comes into account when you want to print very large or crop excessively. However, there is one thing where I would always prefer a good DSLR (full frame) to an APSC sensor or even smaller (e.g. m4/3) and that is dynamic range. I can retrieve so much highlight detail from my D3 files, something that was not possible when I still had my D200 - and with smaller sensors it is even worse.
One thing I wonder, though, is that nobody mentioned the importance of good lighting. The best camera is uncapable of producing a decent photo if the subject is badly lit. IMHO, the lighting and the optics, and a stable setup are way more important than the camera. And, of course, to know your equipment.

Sorry, if I disagree here. Luminars and Photars are 30 year old technology. I have been working with both brands myself for more than 20 years. I mean, they are still outstanding optics but modern microscope objectives (e.g. Mitutoyo or Nikon, also other lesser known brands) beat them by a fair margin as far as detail rendition is concerned.
Cheers
17th Dec 2011 16:28 UTCHarald Schillhammer Expert
Some posters already mention the equipment used in the descriptions of the images. The question is how detailed should this information be?
Is camera and lens/microscope sufficient? Or should it also describe the lighting method, the stacking software, incl. algorithm used, the stack size? An exaggerated version would even mention the camera settings in detail or point out the applied postprocessing techniques and the software used.
I am not sure if I would take the time to list all this.
@Jolyon: Is it possible to add a feature to the galleries to enable a user to read out the exif data?

exif data not appear if the lens its not directly connected to the camera, or appear incorrect

30 years good technology, not for nothing many photographers use old lens on digital cameras seen their high quality. For me the many good lens its the Olympus Zuiko.

Of course they are superb (as I wrote) - I just disagreed with your statement "best in the market".
Zuiko lenses are indeed excellent. The trick is to find out which lens is best for which purpose ...

I certainly wouldn't take the time to list all that in the photo caption either. To me, it would just detract from the beauty of the photo which I'm sure nobody wants. Rather, I would suggest that if folks want more technical details about the photo and how it was taken, just PM or email the poster.

Quite a discussion.
In general the presented photo's are of a very good quality.
I am just an amateur and a lot of you are profs. That is ok with me.
I was just interested to know whether a pic was stacked, to compare them
with an unstacked picture.
Keep the good work up.

Frédéric: when any Mindat manager chooses a certain photo for POTD, he doesn't look at who the photographer is. The photo is the important thing, not the person.
18th Dec 2011 06:42 UTCAccount Closed
Uwe it's your case but all the case....
On 100 % of POTD :
- 50% are bad : dark, vague, bad light, no field of view, pixellisation.....
- 25 % are good but better exist
- 25 % are very good but choice are the same photographers, often.
For resolve the problem, make a votation system but limited. When a personn see a photo she can vote one time.
18th Dec 2011 07:38 UTCAndrew Tuma Expert
I think there is some misunderstanding of what the POTD represents, I do not ever remember where the POTD was the best photo of any mineral. POTD is simply what one of the MINDAT managers thinks should be highlighted for that day. I have no idea why someone has picked any of my photos, I actually think some others are much better - however whoever picked them must have liked them - why....not my problem.
I agree that some of the photography provided by a small few is of the highest standard but please tell me why POTD should be limited to only those who can produce this level of photograph. This is just another case of elitism - something that most of us think is distasteful.
I am just as happy to see a photo provided by someone who has a camera that likely cost little more than the camera strap used by a few of the most elite contributors; by doing this we encourage people to keep improving their interest in mineral photography.
Frédéric - I think you see a problem when none exists, I certainly have no issues if 50% are too dark, (most of mine suffer from this) and 25% are not as good as others on the list.
So lets just leave things as they are, this way we will always have little surprises..

18th Dec 2011 08:17 UTCAccount Closed
what you think is exactly what i think.... There is no problem. Just things must be clear. POTD are not the best of photo just a selection of photo to show a kind of diversity. And same the word diversity is not exact. It's just a selection of managers....
POTD is not a representation of the best photo, just a representation of selection what managers think.
The discussion was about the POTD and materials. Problem is than POTD isn't a standard of quality....
Problem is than some use POTD like an award and it's a chocolate award....

18th Dec 2011 09:54 UTCAndrew Tuma Expert
I guess we cant help what people want to do - so if some wish to use the POTD as a competition - not my problem - as long as they are happy.

normaly I use electronic caliper with lens, for others I use the ocular micrometer of the microscope. I take the measure from a corner to corner for the group, type here, or of the single crystal when possible

Fred, I think diffraction is the minor problem in this photo. I can see focus banding, i.e., the stepping increments are too large - not enough overlap. What is the numerical aperture of your 20X objective? Usually, 20X objectives have a DOF of a little more than 2 microns, that means you would need stepping increments of less than 2 microns. Also, the quality of that lens looks a bit soft to me.

Matteo, these photos clearly show the limitations of Luminars and Photars. For this subject size, you would probably take a 12.5 Photar at full bellows extension. Even when used with completely open aperture, the effective aperture is way beyond the diffraction limit. In addition, the working distance is so small that lighting becomes a problem. For this subject size I would choose a 40X objective and if you take a ELWD version you still have substantially more working distance than with a Photar. However, at this magnification one has to be extremely careful to avoid even the slightest vibration. As a Canon user, you have at least the advantage of the silent mode which mitigates the problems caused by mirror slap and shutter curtain. But even a car passing outside the house might have negative influence on the quality :). I think with microscope objectives you may achieve acceptable print quality down to a FOV of about 0.1 mm, given you have an absolutely vibration-free set-up. Anything smaller than that I guess SEM is the only serious option.

I use everytime the live view of the camera, the problem is moving the bellow with hands, when I have extra money I buy the computed micrometer slide just for not tuch the bellow. But similar photos its for me, and other photographers, only for SEM

In these size it's an obligation to take a lot of photo... Depth of view is very limited for theses field of view by numerical aperture. With a 20X she is near 1.5 to 2µm....
It's important to understand this point....
There is no normaly here.... Just an obligation. With à 4X it's near 15 µm.....
Perhaps could you learn more if you listen more ?

you said in an earlier post that you didnt have the limitations of a classical system: were you referring to photography without stacking, or are you using more advanced processing than simple stacking ( e.g. deconvolution ?)

320 photos for have a similar result, sorry but for me its only time wasted. With only 10 photos I have the same results if not better, all my gallery photos is take with max of 20 photos in multifocus, not over. Just for say the pyroclore example its take with only 7 photos and I not have halos, blurred image etc....

If you want i can make a true photo to compare but you can't send me this specimen...
For make a 0.35 mm FOV photo 10 or 30 photo it's just ridiculous....

Deconvolution is not for me for the moment (but It's an interessant thing....). I must try a freeware for see. Do you have try these freeware ?
But in fact it's for lowest FOV under 1 mm....
Isaid that because i use an atypic system that all. My plate is very simple because i don't need a great precision.... But i can done 0.1 µm for stacking... i'm not limited for the number of image....
For matteo it's not usefull :).

hahahaha...ok ok stay with your idea, I am not professional but strange, Lapis use my photos, Mineralien Welt use my photos, Mineralogical Record use my photos, Gems & Gemmology use my photos and and also used for courses of G.I.A., Rivista Mineralogica Italian just in the last number I had just 3 articles with all my pictures and of specimens under the 1 mm of crystal....strange all this magazines want my photos if I am not professional, and not for speack of the many private collectors or museums or university pay on contract for have photos take by me.

For me magazines are not important, when i look in these magasines, their photo are not enough good for than i paid for that....
I make new photo... i give example of definition if you want in the same size = 1.4 mm okay ? All here could compare... I 'll prefer take your clinochlore and all could be seen the difference.

I am wondering Chinellato are you trying to teach us or is this a show of egomania?
I guess all mindat knows you have 15000 euro equipment (good for you, I don't and don't want), if that is worth or not is not by business, but this is not a good reason (in my opinion) to always criticize someone else work. Do you think your comments are helpful? they only lead to irritation and do not bring anything good to you, to the other participants and readers. Is that so difficult to have an adult discussion, with a fruitful exchange of ideas and opinions??
btw Chinellato one more comment, doesn't your signature say "equipment is only the beginning, the photographer plays the major role"? and than you say you need 15000 euro equipment, it's not a good commercial for you skills.
just to conclude, I do photo because I enjoy it and whenever I can I'm glad to share my experience, to learn from someone else, or to help beginners.

Yes they are some noise (czp can done better) but the resolution is better than your pirochlore. We can see details.... Anf for that just an objective 4X and for 23 dollars you find the same quality on ebay...

If we live in a world where we can't seen the quality, it's not my problem. If some pay for that, it's there money, why not ?
I say just than i want just compare and i don't find someone in "professional". In fact, you have nothing to win....
