Automatically adjusting the contrast
The contrast is automatically adjusted by right-clicking
the image and then selecting [Auto Scale for Full Image].
If the bright point image is elliptical in the last 20
frames
If the bright point images are circular in the first 20
frames, but they are elliptical in the last 20 frames, this
may be because the specimen position has been shifted.
Make sure that the specimen is fixed properly and then
acquire images again.
