•  Neutral I would like to support but I think we do not need that stuff at the bottom (it can be put in the image description). Daniel Case (talk) 19:18, 19 May 2016 (UTC)

•  Comment - That's certainly a valid point of view, although I think the information on scale is helpful. But it's up to Judyta Dulnik. Judyta, if you're reading, do you have an opinion about this? -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 03:58, 20 May 2016 (UTC)
•  Comment - Well, as Daniel Case said all the information can be put in description, but this is how I've been taking pictures with SEM I'm working on and, to be honest, it haven't crossed my mind to put it elsewhere. To me it doesn't disrupt the picture, but I might be a little biased. --Judyta Dulnik (talk) 07:00, 20 May 2016 (UTC)

• Judyta, thanks for your response. I don't think it disrupts the picture, although I don't know what "3kv" or "WD(...)" mean, so you might explain anything non-obvious in your file description. Also, if you'd like to vote on whether to feature your photo, feel free. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 10:32, 20 May 2016 (UTC)

•  Comment In any case, I think it's a good thing to include a scale bar. I'd crop a little bit at the bottom, though, to have the text vertically centred. And yes, I'd appreciate an explanation of "3kv" etc. in the file description as well. --El Grafo (talk) 11:58, 20 May 2016 (UTC)

I've myself only worked a little with TEMs and not SEMs and even that was really long time ago. So I'm not much of a specialist on that. But kV should refer to the amount of energy used. Electron microscopes have an electron emitter (called cathode or filament), that is electrically heated, so that it would bounce off electrons (they replace photons, that are captured by "normal" cameras). For a bigger magnification you need more energy. This WD11mm should refer to the fact that Working Distance is 11 mm. It is sort like what a focal length is in optical systems. I have no idea what that SS40 is.

For me this black line with that info is so common, that I kinda like it to be present. Kruusamägi (talk) 20:07, 20 May 2016 (UTC)

•  Comment - I've just added some description, very brief though, since it would be too much explaining to people who are not familiar with this subject. I believe these details might be interesting for those working with SEM and they simply don't need more desciption.--Judyta Dulnik (talk) 07:44, 23 May 2016 (UTC)
