Just got a digital microscope/camera. Works good and connects to my iPhone wirelessly.
But, I can’t get a clear pic. Holding in my hand, only the smallest movement makes it super blurry. Can’t get a decent pic.
Any hints on how to get better super close up pics of buds.
iPhone is on a tripod so I don’t have to hold it

I cant tell you how many shots it takes to get a few decent ones lol… ill usually to hold the bud still and get it as close as i can and dial it in with the other hand

Alot around here get a $20 mic stand.
I haven’t yet but have found it easier to set the zoom about half way then move the scope to get a clear pic Vs trying to spin the dial while focusing

Cut off a bud from middle, lay it on mat and take apic. You can also take a vid of the plant close up and then take some stills of the video.

Some growers have microphone stands. Stabilizes the scope while you focus and snap pics.

This stand is great. It is stable and does not vibrate. I can fine tune distance while focusing with the camera’s barrel.
I also use a camera tripod.

I had the same issue. But my microscope has a cord.
I ended up using my laptop, as holding my phone and the cord to the microscope could make movement, and this:

Works great for me… I put my plant next to it… Aim it then hands off… No movement.
Microscope fits perfectly.
