Dear Jens,

Zeiss sells such a piezo stage - although they are not the producers 
(and it is very expensive). In about a week will receive it as an 
upgrade for our LSM510 system. Prior also sells such an insert (~ 40% 
cheaper then the Zeiss insert). Furthermore, Leica has also such a 
Z-stage, however it is not piezo but galvo-driven, but a larger problem 
is that it can be controlled (as far as I know) only by Leica software.

Cheers    Gabor
