I'm no expert, but here are two points to consider, IF you really are
equally attached to both scopes:

Which one has the most readily available accessories? You're probably
going to want more--Leitz may have the advantage there.

If you really like them the same, then which one has the highsest
resale value? You might get more cash for one, to buy more of those
accessories for the other!

Hello,

I recently bought two microscopes at a county auction, one is a
Reichert Zetopan and the other a Letitz Ortholux 1. Both are in great
condition, and they are set up with cameras for microphotography. I've
alway's loved the older microscopes and I'm wanting to keep one and
sell the other, but I'm not sure which one to keep. I'm tempted to keep
both, but I really shouldn't at this time. I know that getting parts
for the Zetopan is more difficult than getting parts for the Ortholux.
Does anyone know which is the better microscope for microphotography? I
would really appreciate any input from other members which are
experienced with these older microscopes.

Thank you'

Frank
