Dear All,

having just had a look at the schematics of the new Zeiss 710, I have
noted the introduction of a brand new "Master" pinhole, and was wondering
how everyone would feel about this new Zeiss concept of the "single"
pinhole and how that squares with what we've all heard from Zeiss about
the matter over the last n number of years.

all the best

Darran,

you are right that this development doesn't fit to all the statements
from the past. However, I am glad that they finally decided to jump over
their own shadow and moved to a single pinhole system. It's a pain to
align multi pinhole systems like the 510, especially if one wants to
perform serious colocalisation analysis. Moreover, it will be difficult
to offer a multi pinhole spectral system.

Michael
