Leica has developed very good, easy but rather expensive digital
cameras with the special microscopical software.

We have got a positive experience with the ordinary Canon D30 (for
Europe) digital photocamera with about 2.7 Mio pixels for about 5000
DM (last year).

Good luck

Dear netters: There is a Nikon microscope model E 600 with an attached
FDX-35 microcamera in one lab of our Research Center. We accidentally lost
the user's catalogue, so now we're having some problems to take photographs.
Is there anyone out there who can send us an attachment with the catalogue?

Thank you in advance

Dear Histonetters: I've already visited Nikon website, but I couldn't find
any information on the FDX-35 microcamera attached to the top of the E 600
Nikon microscope, nor could I get the user's catalogue. Does anyone out
there have such models of Nikon microscope and microcamera in his lab? If
you can help me, please submit the catalogues as an attachment.

Thank you

Dear Dr. Frederick Monson: Nice to meet you! I'm a Vet Histopathologist
currently looking for sponsors for the development of a new website on
Animal Diagnostic Histopathology.
During over 10 years I've been assembling a collection of microscopic
sections from natural cases of disease in Argentine cattle, rabbits and
poultry, which it is my idea to show through the Internet. By the way,
should you know some eventual patrons for this enterprise, please let me
know. I'm interested to keep in touch with you, as I'll be shortly working
on microimaging!

Sincerely yours
