Hello Leica users,

for my experiments I need to know the size of the pinhole of the Leica
TCS SP backprojected onto the sample. The software shows me a digital
pinhole size of 90 and claims this to be the size of one Airy disk
(Objective: 100x/1.3). However, I doubt this, as the Airy disk reading
doesn't change with the chosen excitation/emission wavelength. Maybe
Leica calculates the Airy disk reading for a fixed reference wavelength?
Can anybody help me?

Thank you in advance,

Joachim
