Dear List,
 
   We're planning to set up an inverted confocal microscope for live cell imaging. I'd appreciate any opinions on using manual vs x-y motorized stage. Is the motorized stage more stabile during long-term experiments? Does it facilitate/is it necessary for any experiments besides multi-point time-lapse imaging?
   Thanks for your comments!
