WANTED: modern DIC microscope

Post by descall »

A couple of years ago I moved home and sold my beloved Olympus BX51 with complete DIC setup. I miss it too much and now wish to obtain another modern DIC microscope setup. If anyone knows of a complete setup for sale on the amateur market, please let me know (I'm based in the UK). I'd be interested in any good set-up, such as the Nikon E600, Ni-U, Olympus BX51, BX53, etc. I assume modern alternatives from Zeiss and Leica are as good. Many thanks for any help.

Hi descall did you obtain the DIC microscope you were looking for? There is a nice PZO DIC conplete plug and play on ebay you can't miss it if you search it. I just finally finished putting my whole Nikon DIC system together and it really set me back finacially, very expensive to put together. Goodluck buddy

Haven't found one yet, still ruminating over matters. I may go with a modern Olympus, since it is a system I know a little. As you say, terribly expensive, especially if bought new. But very, very pleasing :D
