quality and time/bleaching!  Don’t  use a default laser or gain settings, always change them 
freely to get the best image without ruining the sample.  
Note that if you change the pinhole, the signal is collected in a different Z range (intensity is 
changed), therefore new intensity adjustment is needed.
