[3dem] Tietz & FEI

[Hernando J Sosa]

Hi Daniel

I have to speak again with FEI regarding this issue.  My understanding now is that you have to have a separate computer connected to the one running the microscope with the camera  software (Tietz EMMENU or any other 3d party software such as Leginon or SerialEM).   Fei makes a difference between cameras that you can "embed" with their software and cameras that you can't. I think the Tietz cameras are in the second group. However, you can still use a Tietz  camera  without problems using Tietz or other software (Please anybody feel free to correct if I am wrong here or fill in more details on this issue).  We had  a demo of the newer Tietz 4K by 4K CMOS camera (but in a JEOL microscope) and it seems pretty good. It has very fast acquisition so you wouldn't need an additional camera for focusing, scanning the grid etc.  

Best

Hernando

Thanks for the responses and suggestions that I have gotten so far regarding camera choices for FEI microscopes (Tecnai-20).  It will be a while until we make a decision (and get the $$) so please keep send me any suggestions and experience that you have had regarding this issue. I will at the end try to return the favor by summarizing all the responses and our experience.

Thanks  again

Hernando
