In response to the recent questions about the new Olympus Fluoview CLSM:
The piezo-electric Z scanner options (a stage driver for the BX50 upright
microscope and a nosepiece driver for the IX 70 inverted microscope) will be
available around May 1996.
The preliminary specifications are as follows:
Stroke range: 100 um
Resolution 0.1um
(No piezo-electric Z scanner option will be available for the BX50WI fixed-stage
upright microscope.)
