Zeiss Aus Jenna

From a post on post on the Yahoo Microscope group by Kevin Sunley

For information concerning literature/manuals for that era of
equipment, the Zeiss archives:

http://www.zeiss.de/de/archives/home.nsf

.. is very useful.  That page is in German, but there is a link near
the top of the page for their English site.  Their archivist has
very likely a copy of every document or sales record Zeiss has ever
produced, so that'd be a great place to start.  For some photocopies
there can be a small charge, but I believe it is quite reasonable.

If you have specific equipment in mind that you're looking for, it
does come up occasionally on the normal online auction sites.  Two
other places you might want to try are:

http://www.mikroskop-online.de/index.html

.. they are a German company which seems to have fair amount of
Zeiss Jena equipment.  I've never dealt with them personally, but
I'm quite sure I've seen numerous auctions from them on eBay.  They
seem to have a great amount of positive feedback and know what
they're talking about.  I believe their eBay name is "xxxx11". 
Also their site is in German, I seem to remember asking them a
question, and receiving an English response.


Another company is Desna Laboratories:

http://www.desna.com/

.. they're an American company with experience servicing Jena
microscopes, and are usually the company that I've had Zeiss refer
me to when I had questions regarding Jena equipment.  While I'm
posting this, it seems that their website is not quite working
properly (there seem to be no links off the main page) so I'm not
sure why that is, but there is a phone number and e-mail address on
their main page which might help.


Are there any particular accessories you're looking for?


HTH,

Kevin
