Capturing video via a microscope requires a ton of light and the microscope\u2019s light is only so powerful. Each bulb only lasted for up to 3 hours at max power before they would die. I must have gone through 8 or 9 bulbs during the course of filming (and they\u2019re not cheap bulbs!). Because of this, I needed to rig up external lightning that could help illuminate the scene. I ended up using a small Manfrotto Lykos light which did the trick.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" title=\"NewImage.png\" src=\"http:\/\/jnack.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/NewImage-7.png\" alt=\"NewImage\" width=\"598\" height=\"372\" border=\"0\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" title=\"NewImage.png\" src=\"http:\/\/jnack.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/NewImage-8.png\" alt=\"NewImage\" width=\"599\" height=\"394\" border=\"0\" \/><\/p>\n<p>[<a href=\"https:\/\/vimeo.com\/249105147\">Vimeo<\/a>] [<a href=\"https:\/\/petapixel.com\/2018\/01\/09\/structure-4k-shots-organic-things-magnified-1000x\/?mc_cid=26c0b5da90&amp;mc_eid=53d8d48922\">Via<\/a>]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Drew Geraci takes us on a beautiful, 1000x-closer tour of the not-so-ordinary world: \u00a0Drew writes, Since I was capturing motion now everything needed to be 100% completely still.
