The preparation of specimens I find intimidating nevertheless I still find getting into it appealing.
I have been thinking of a trinocular unit (something like this https://microscopes.com.au/products/n120mt-sp-bundle-c it has a dedicated camera rather than trying to fit a DSLR.

I have a used Olympus BHB Trinocular, with both bright field and phase contrast condensers, but don't have a camera -- used these in my job as a Pathology Technician. You can find lots of prepared Microscope slides for sale, BUT what do you want to look at.
Dark field is a very nice addition, but that can be had using a Spider Stop, IF you have a filter holder under your condenser. Or interchange the condensor with a dark field condenser.
If I can help in any way do contact me via PM.
Am trying to sell many Microscope accessories. Had a second Olympus BHB with a binocular head, but have donated that to a missionary Medical Clinic in PNG. Have to refurbish it first, before the Cesna 180 takes it up on their next trip.
