Please watch this short tutorial for
viewing thin sections in Zen Lite
Thin sections can be viewed in ZEN software, including the free
ZEN Lite 3.1.
- If you are using a pre-owned licensed version of ZEN, you must use version 2.6 or higher to view the images properly. Users who currently have a licensed version of ZEN Blue 2.5 should only upgrade to ZEN Blue 2.6 using the main ZEISS software portal to view these thin sections. Only download and install ZEN Blue 3.1 using the above link if you have no previous versions of ZEN Blue 2.x.
