Hi, everyone:

I'm looking for a 63X objective for live imaging and its resolution is my major concern.  Zeiss recommands Objective LCI Plan-Neofluar 63x/1.3 Imm Corr DIC M27, saying it has NA = 1.3 in both water and glycerine.  Does it really have NA=1.3 even in water?  

Your reply is highly appreciated.
Xiao
