Nikon has announced the winners of its Small World in Motion competition, which celebrates the fascinating subgenre of video microscopy. Just as deep-space content creators attach cameras to the best telescopes for astrophotography to capture faraway celestial objects, photomicrographer and videographers utilize the best microscopes to capture otherworldly images and footage of subjects that are otherwise invisible to the human eye.
Nikon has a rich heritage of making optics for microscopes, so it's hardly surprising that it's been championing this niche area of image making via its Small World competition since 1975. The Nikon Small World in Motion competition launched in 2011 exclusively for microscopy videographers to complement the existing Nikon Small World competition, reserved for photomicrography submissions.
