Hi Sebastiano I always feel uneasy when these conversations come up on the bb because smaller companies tend to be overlooked in the discussion. Being a member of a smaller company myself I know how frustrating this is, because you feel that you can't speak up yourself because it looks like an advertisement.
I know very little about imaging systems, but I think you should at least consider the systems made by Jansci, XtalQuest and XtalConcepts There may be others.
