We are having difficulties with a Quad Viewer from Optical Insights. It splits and output image into 4 and allows for 4 emission filters. The attraction is that you can get 4 images concurrently on a widefield system, and potentially on a spinning disk confocal. The downside is that the images are small.
 
Our problem is that we see shading in one corner of the whole image, Optical Insights assure us that this is a problem limited to Zeiss microscopes but have yet to solve the problem.
 
What experiences do other users have with this potentially attractive equipment, especially on Zeiss microscopes ?.
