Contrast of a dual-objective system as a function of crossing angle for collection NAs of 0.4, 0.7, and 1.0. In all cases, contrast improves with crossing angle until around 60°, at which point further gains are minimal. Contrast also improves slightly at higher collection NAs, as the collection objective provides some additional optical sectioning at higher NAs.
