So, I managed to capture a detail in a frame less than 1mm wide (~0.8mm FOV) without using a microscope, i.e. with the device commonly used for macro photography.
Pictured is a stack of 154 images taken at low resolution (6MP), just for testing and without some super macro accessories (extra stabilizer and fine feed screw).

I'll give details in a separate thread about what the image is about.
The lens used in this example is a very old one. With quality microscope lenses you can get amazing detail.
