Me just noticed you have the 100VA/50Vac model, (suppose you obtained one from Farny)
Me experience with glued core transformers is okidoki, Dagnall is a trannie co. from the jolly good show UK days.
Good value for meunie, + nice and small.
This marble doesn't roll down well in my empty skull, care to BS ?
(me thinks he needs a showcase display to complement his travelling salesman suit for the ZZ-Mop world tour)
Mmm, a Pass Dee-Idiot-Thang sticker would be more suitable

It is not the camera just user....
What I was describing is to use macro setting on the lens or camera - do not know what you have used. That will allow you to come close to the subject and to be focused. Than manually focus to somewhere between board and the top of the cap. That will allow you to do the full frame of what you are shooting. After that size to what you need (not crop - size) and post.

It depends... Have to test if it will fit noise-wise in same chassis or not.
About shielding :
The only noise problem I had with my Aleph 5 was induced hum from trafo (toroids from schuro) and mecanical buzz (imagine there is a razor inside the amp).
First was cure with playing with orientation and placing a (1,5 mm) metal plate between trafos and circuit (in fact rest of amp) a plate of something I would say it is iron.
A friend of mine, working in an Art gallery was using it to shield TV monitors during an exhibition. After demontage, he gave me the plates. They looks pretty like iron but this friend pretends they were expensive and special for shieding purpose (anyway uMetal don't looks like that).
And it really works.
Second (buzz) was cured with buying new trafos.
(At this place I would like to ask if somebody knows a method to test the polarity of unmarked toroid secondaries).
(C'est vrai, ils sont bien les Dagnall?)

two independent secs , and you need them as one - center tapped ?
in that case - connect (temporary ) two ends of these two secs ;
measure voltage between (now) free ends of secondaries ;
if you have ~ 0V , they are in contra phase ;
( so - just use other end of one sec for connecting in center tap)
if you have full voltage , they are in correct phase
