Hey All,
As I was reading this thread I asked our FSE currently onsite what the differences are between the Arctica and Glacios. He said the Arctica has an objective with constant power. The Glacios on the other hand has a Technai lens, so the power to the lens will change with magnification change. So the columns are not the same in his mind.
He also suggested that in order to add a GIF to the Glacios you would need to cut out the floor... but that sounds pretty aggressive to me.

Subject: Re: [ccpem] Talos Arctica vs Glacios
One main difference that has nothing to do with capability, since they are the same, is that the Glacios can pretty much go thru any corridor and door size while the Arctica is a real pain as it is massive. We had an Arctica installed almost two years ago and it was a nightmare to move from the delivery area to the Facility, we had a glacios delivered on Monday and in 2h the microscope was in its room.

Hi,
Can anyone tell the differences in terms of capabilities of 200kV Talos Arctica and 200kV Glacios, apart from their size??
