    For anyone wondering - he said on Twitter that this was filmed in March, before he found out, so him looking at a lymph node is really just a wild coincidence!

    You sound so different between SciShow where you more 'excited and upbeat' and Microcosmos where you are much more 'quiet and thoughtful'. I almost didn't recognize your voice the first time I watched Micro. This particular vid is all excited and upbeat and the norm I'm used to. I like both versions of presentation, but the Micro is so soothing, almost meditative. Just thought I'd tell ya.

    Hi Hank, I have an astronomy telscope, with a smart phone adapter, that does basicly the same thing as your microscope phone adapter. I find it works much better to take the eyepiece off of the telescope, clamp the adapter and the phone on the eyepiece, and then put a bright surface behind it, like a white piece of paper, while I align the phone, with the camera turned on. That way, I can more easily center the phone on the eyepiece. I can see the edges of the light coming thru the eyepiece, and center it, and it does not need to be in focus at this time. After the phone camera is centered, I can put the whole unit (phone, adapter and eyepiece) back on the telescope.
    I am wondering if that process would help with the microscope as well.

    QUESTION - I was actually drafting an email to Complexly & James right when they announced this video was coming out, so I put it on hold and have been waiting!! I need something that I can use with my left hand. Or mostly use my left hand. Looks like the focus is Bilateral. Yay! But what about the slide tray? Can it be moved with the left hand? Or can a left handed slide tray be purchased & exchanged? I haven't used a microscope in almost 30 years... Can most of the things be done left handed?
    Unfortunately, I have nerve damage in my right hand from multiple sclerosis. I am investigating new hobbies since I can no longer do most things. Microscopy is at the top of my list. Along with doing scent work with my dog...
    If anyone knows and could answer I would really appreciate it. Otherwise, I will send my email along anyway...
