Dot: World's Smallest Stop-motion Animation

YT: Professor Fletcher's invention of the CellScope, which is a Nokia device with a microscope attachment, was the inspiration for a teeny-tiny film created by Sumo Science at Aardman. It stars a 9mm girl called Dot as she struggles through a microscopic world. All the minuscule detail was shot using CellScope technology and a Nokia N8, with its 12 megapixel camera and Carl Zeiss optics.

This is a small part of an article about the CellScope:

"through to the maximum 50x magnification, which can show individual white and red blood cells"

I dunno about your digital cameras but none of mine do this. I know this magnification isn't that but a device made with that level of usage probably comes with some advantages.

Awesome animation, but why use the CellScope? The Macro function on any digital camera would function equally well or better for this purpose.

That's exactly it, this video doesn't use anything close to those magnifications, so I don't see the point of using the CellScope. If you've seen any good macro photos you can see that their quality is much better than the stop motion frames used in this video.
