Contura G2

[[Jo...]]

Anybody use a Contura G2 with an RDS head. we currently have a Vast XT head on ours and Zeiss sales rep is saying we cant mount an RDS on our machine. Does this sound right? I've seen many pics and vids on the net of the same machine as mine using articulating head. Does it have to do with the age of our G2?

It might have something to do with the age, I currently am running a G2 that's 7 years old and I have the RDS Articulating head on mine. If I were you, I would call Zeiss directly and not go through the sales rep. I have come to learn that the sales rep knows one thing, and one thing only...sales. As far as the technical stuff, they tend to guess so they don't have to bounce you around or they, well, bounce you around. 😃

Funny thing is, I cant even get the guy to email me back. My first contact was on the 5th. I've only had 2 responses from him. He was supposed to set a time and day to come visit my lab this week. Still waiting on that follow up. Not very professional in my opinion.

We have a G2 700 x 700 with a RDS.

I asked the same question a while back and was told you can't change sensor types on the Contura. You're stuck with what the machine was built with.
