This morning I received mail from Zeiss about my August 26 summary on
dissecting scopes, in which I said that "Zeiss, surprisingly, was
almost invisible". I've typed in the letter verbatim below. (It was
paper mail.)

Dear Dr. Avery,
Your memo on the Internet concerning dissecting scopes has come to my
attention.
I would like to do a bit to make Zeiss somewhat less invisible in this
area. We have four excellent scopes: the low-priced STEMI 1000 and
Stemi 2000 stereomicroscopes; & the research level SV6 and SV II
scopes. The price levels for these scopes (without documentation or
other accessories) are:
Stemi 1000 $1,800
Stemi 2000 $2,300
SV 6 $3,500
SV II $5,000
All these dissecting scopes offer outstanding optics, smooth and
precise controls, high-quality construction, and the fullest range of
accessories to perform all possible manipulations and techniques.
Please consider sharing this information with your associates on the
Internet.
Sincerely yours,
Irv Toplin
