What do you use to check Trichome readiness ?

A wee jewelers loupe mate it's a x60 magnification and only costs a couple of quid.

Mate, you just gotta get REAL close and squint a bit. Then buy a loupe. Unless you want to show off your trichome pics.

I use a 50mm lens from an old film slr.

Depends on what YOU mean by "best":

Cost the least?
Most magnification?
Smallest and easy to carry?

This one is listed on the RQS site and quite inexpensive from online. has a decent magnification range, a focus adjustment wheel, even a LED to illuminate.

I can't post links but you can get a Nikon d50, used, for about $35.


A cheap lens that will mount a nikon.



Lastly an extensions tube.



You could do this with other brands as well but n not familiar with thier mounting systems and how they have changed over the years. With nikon the F mount has never changed so.

So you could definitely get a good macro setup for under $100 that allows you to just take a whole bunch of images and review them.

This is great info, thank you!!
