Perhaps you can help me with a personal dilemma; I'm about to purchase a
microscope and I've boiled
the choice down to either a Leica Galen III or a Carl Zeiss Standard 20.
The Leica has more bells and
whistles than the Zeiss, and for the setup I'm thinking of it's also about
$1000 cheaper than the Zeiss. I
have not used either and am 500 miles from the closest demo unit. In your
personal opinion would I be
better off, in the long-run, going with the Zeiss? Is one more comfortable
to use than the other in terms
of fatigue? How would YOU compare these two microscopes generally?
