Hi Vladimir,

We have a LaVision Ultramicroscope and I would be happy to answer any 
specific questions you may have about it if you want to contact me 
offline.  I'm not sure from your e-mail what kind of suggestions or 
comments you are looking for.
It might also be helpful if you could say where you are located, in case 
you have questions about service or whatever - that's always easier to 
tell from a work e-mail address than from a gmail one...

All the best,
Alison
