Values are means ± standard errors of the means; tp is the time to peak of dim flash response; ti is the integration time of the dim flash response; a is the estimated amplitude of the single photon response derived from the variance/mean rates in experiments with multiple dim flash trials; io is the flash strength at 500 nm that gave rise to a half-maximal response; and rmax is the saturating photoresponse amplitude.
