Hello All,

I would appreciate hearing thoughts on Zeiss' line of Axioimager imaging systems. I've just found out that an A1 (most basic, for documentation) is going into our tiny (2 scope) facility. However, I am thinking of asking for an upgrade to the M1, motorized and apparently suitable for live cell imaging, 3D deconvolution microscopy, FRET even. Is anyone out there using their Axiovision's for live cell imaging, FRET, 3D acquisition and deconvolution?

 

Any and all thoughts are greatly appreciated.

Cheers

Farid
