This is what fine table salt looks like magnified 150 times with an electron microscope.

Dwmoar, Maybe if I wear a heavy winter coat sleeping in the doghouse won't be so bad after all.

This is a focused stacked image of the pollen on a stamen of a lily from our yard. It was staged using a 10X microscope objective as the optic for the camera and an LED soft light with tracing paper added for diffusion. There are 436 images taken in the session and processed in Zerene Stacker to produce this resulting image.

I've included images of the setup of the camera rig and the way that I stage the subject before the camera that I use for these sessions for those who may be interested in knowing.

Thanx for the details. I never thought of a milling table. I tried a microscope stage once back in Ekta chrome days for a pproject showing chicken embryo daily changes.
Just an idea it sounds like you know the "speed" of the motorized rail fairly accurate Could you then automate exposures like a time lapse series? Letting the camera auto-focus each frame at each distance needed to build the stack?
