Adjusting SRA using macro lens vs microscope

I have ordered a USB microscope to adjust SRA after reading Fremer's article. Meanwhile, I took some pics of the stylus with non macro Canon L lens (handheld) and can visualize the sharp triangular shape of the stylus and the record surface. It is only reasonable to assume that with a tripod and macro lens, the image would be much better.

Since many audiogoners are expert photoghraphers as well, anyone tried this?

Hi Glai, which usb microscope did you buy?

The scope is good to see what your ears are telling you. SRA is more important with some stylus's than other's. Doug, it may be fun to see where your SRA is at with a few albums just to see.

Interesting read which I am sure some of you have already read.

As Raul said everthing changes when SRA is changed. Some tonearms moreso than others.
