Centering the Light Annulus
NOTES:
● Halo-like ghost images of the light annulus may sometimes appear. It this occurs, superimpose the
brightest light annulus image over the phase annulus.
●
When a thick specimen is moved or replaced, the light annulus and the phase annulus may deviate. This
is usually due to the amount of media or wellplate inconsistences. This can reduce image contrast. If this
occurs, repeat steps 1-5 for readjustment.
● The centering procedure may have to be repeated in order to get the best possible contrast if a specimen
slide or the bottom surface of a culture vessel is not flat. Center the light annulus using objectives in the
order of lower to higher magnifications.
