The microscopenet and Celestron Digital Microscope Imager units appear to only capture video & transfer it to a screen and not take digital pictures. Probably okay if that is what you want.
Skylight holds your cell phone. Have you tried to just put your phone up to the eye piece and snap a picture? A professor at a local small college told me her students were doing that (hold phone to the eyepiece) to get some OK pictures using the microscope.
Measuring objects and putting the measurement on a picture: To apply measurements to a picture you will need to first calibrate an ocular micrometer in your eyepiece then use that calibration for the camera unit that 'stamps' the measurement onto the picture. You to need to know a length of something at the magnification that you are using to transpose that measurement to a photograph. Do you have a micrometer in your microscope ocular? Then you will also need to have a standard unit stage micrometer to calibrate your ocular micrometer - do you have one of those? Without those things measurements on the picture will not be accurate.
