Abstract

It is the purpose of this paper to survey the fields described in the title. We do not intend a catalogue of available equipment: microscope and photographic equipment manufacturers will, no doubt, be delighted to supply interested people with full details of their products. Rather, it is our purpose to comment on the generality of what is available and on the techniques which this equipment make possible in the examination of structures of all kinds. The paper is divided into six sections which deal respectively with the microscope, the camera, illumination, lenses, the recording medium and some special techniques.
