Inspired by @daves64 pictures, I decided to try out a Dino Lite for myself. I tried the AF4915ZTL model. I knew I wanted image stacking capabilities, which Dino-Lite calls Extended Depth of Field (EDOF), Automatic Magnification Reading (AMR) since an accurate scale bar was a priority and a long working distance for larger specimens so that helped narrow down the model. There are definitely pros and cons about it, but I'll let the results do the talking. Taken using EDOF: Taken using EDOF as well: Taken using the Extended Dynamic Range (EDR) feat

Has anyone found an easy way to project an image of a fossil assemblage to allow tracing onto paper to map and label multiple specimens on same rock? I have a plate made of 2 large pieces with about 30 trilobite cephalons and 1 upside down complete one on the surface. They do not contrast at all against the matrix. So, not really a good example to just photo and map. I'm guessing the easiest way will be to borrow a digital projector to project a photo onto a sheet of paper? Wait, just came to me. Part of the problem with just using a photograph is changing the directional lighting to bring out

Found this in a customer's rock garden. They had a couple truckloads of the most random assortment of rock sizes, shapes and colors I've ever seen. I apologize that there are no clues based on it's location. All the rocks in my 'hello from Oklahoma' intro were all found in the same place. They rock itself is approx. 2¼ in. long x 1¾ in. wide x ½ in. tall. The marking isn't an indentation but the 'medium' -for lack of a better description- seems organic. If it is human-made, I'd be curious to know how. The markings are so precise as to be human-made but also seem completely natural. I've not at

Kurufossils posted a topic in Questions & Answers
Hi, does anyone have or know where I can view images of a ankyloaurus/nodosaur foot but especially the ungals? Having a hard time finding images for a comparison. -
Question about posting photos using Insta360 One X
Creek - Don posted a topic in General Fossil Discussion
Does anybody here ever post a photo using Insta360 One X photo which you can rotate 360 degrees using a mouse? I have this camera, but have not tried here yet. -
I'm having a hard time finding any images of anything other than the outside/side view of a spinosaur pelvic bone. I'm trying to see what the bone looks like in general, but all too many times...WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY too many times I'll spend forever unsuccessfully trying to come across pictures, images, or diagrams that show what a bone looks like from other angles than what you see be looking at the skeleton from generic angles, like this one. In some cases it's not TOO difficult, but even those common bones have areas that you can never see, unless you get totally lucky and happen across it,

It seems that the notorious T-rex was not only inaudible (there was already an article about it), but it also looked a little .... weird http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-5218921/T-rex-tufty-hair-orange-eyebrows.html

I have two associated Hyaenodon horridus mandibles from Nebraska. They puzzled me because they appear to be from an adult but when I removed some matrix is saw gaps for a molar and a tip of tooth peeping out. I looked into it and it seems that the last molar doesn't reupt until age 3-4 so that is roughly the age of this animal. To verify, I asked a good mate to xray it. You can clearly see the tooth roots below the crowns of the teeth and below the gum line (ie embedded into the bone). You can also clearly make out the mandibular canal (long dark line running ventrally (below) the teeth - it's

I came across an article today on using a printer scanner to image shark teeth. It worked well for the labial side (relatively flat). However, the lingual side was less than satisfactory. Have any of you used this method of imaging teeth, and do any of you have tips on getting good images for the lingual side? Thanks, Carson

Hello everyone! If you are interested in Eocene elasmobranch teeth, you can look at some specimens on https://sites.google.com/site/kyivzub/ Emphasize is made on 3D-imaging. Stereopairs are designed for cross-eyed viewing without any devices (if unfamiliar, look, for example, http://apophysisrevealed.com/viewing.html) New teeth will be added constantly: my rate of finding is bigger than rate of scanning. Help with identification is welcomed!
