Hi Julio,

You could check out ASI: http://www.asiimaging.com/slideinserts.html and
look at the SI-INV-4000. It fits into a standard Zeiss scanning stage on
an inverted. While it works, I found it a little clumsy to get slides in
and out so we ended up having our own design made. Let me know if you
like more info on that home-made design.

Cheers,
