 | Nikon D300 DX 12.3MP Digital SLR Camera (Body Only)
Buy new: $1,624.88 / Used from: $1,449.99 A reasonable first DSLR for the serious hobbyist. A D60 or D40 would do too, but I want the remote viewing, control and capture capability of the wireless adapter. This is an useful feature for microscope-mounted cameras.

 | Nikon WT-4A Wireless Transmitter for Nikon D700, D3 and D300 DSLR Cameras
Buy new: $683.85 Expensive!! But still less than the competition (compare Cannon's). Allows remote viewing, control and download with the D300. Siblings of this are available for the D2 series too.

 | Nikon Camera Control Pro 2 Software Full Version for Nikon DSLR Cameras
Buy new: $159.95 Allows almost full control of the D300 via a WiFi link (with the WT-4A) or via other wired links: USB and FireWire.

 | Nikon 18-200mm f/3.5-5.6 G ED-IF AF-S VR DX Zoom-Nikkor Lens + Deluxe Accessory Kit w/5 Year Extended Warranty
Buy new: $739.55 This is a good one for general purpose use (surely you don't want to keep the camera tethered to the microscope always now, would you?).

 | Sony VAIO VGN-TZ398U/XC 11.1" Laptop (1.33 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo U7700 Processor, 2 GB RAM, 64 GB Solid State Drive, Vista Ultimate) Black
Buy new: $3,266.29 An ultimate ultralight laptop with 64GB SSD plus 320GB HDD in an under 1.4 kg or 3 lbs lightweight package, with external DVD rewriter! A commuter's dream. I carry mine, a previous version (T37), daily on the crowded Central Railway and the uphill hike to IITB. This one is worth lusting over. Together with a WiFi DSLR, you are a micro photographer on the go!

 | Nikon TC-201 (2.0x) Teleconverter AI-S for Nikon Digital SLR Cameras
Added to any lens, particularly the 105 mm micro, this tele-converter offers a superb 2x magnification with good working distance. Of course, many settings have to be done manually.
