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?

I have used a magnifying glass, and a comparison to an index card that has a vertical line and 92 degree line on it.

You have to "squint" for a hour, and have a micromiter head
height adjustment(like some VPI arms). But you can get close!

This gives a good starting point. Then follow through with very, very, small incremental adjustments, and a good "Ear".

You can hit the exact SRA in an afternoon.

A macro lens should work better!
May I respectfully direct you to my own article on the topic from which, I might add, Mr. Fremer borrowed (stole?) liberally over 4 years later!!

Thanks
