Hi Tino,

The Opera is a very nice system. The high NA not only gives you higher resolution but also shorter exposures which is not to be underestimated for HCS. One of our screens quantified changes in yeast organelle morphology.

We've a couple of images from our Opera on our website:

Feel free to email me off list for more details.

Regards,

Tony
