Hi all, I am new to this forum (please, be patient and apologize me if I am missing some guidelines or netiquette rules: please be so kind to just let me know). We have an **Olympus F-view Camera** mounted on a BX61WI microscope and connected to an old computer running on **Windows XP**. For our application, it would be crucial to be able to easily **adjust brightness and contrast live during acquisition** but it seems this possibility is not available on the software that we have: **cell^F 2.8** (Build 1235, Function Table 1075, Acquisition extended). I understood that we could control the camera and stage with Micro-Manager, and that, by doing this, we would have this simple feature (live/online brightness and contrast adjustment). Does anybody know if this applies also to our system (i.e. if they are compatible?). Thanks! ---

@nico.stuurman could answer this? Also if you tag questions about Micro-Manager with “micro-manager” that will hopefully get the attention of the Micro-Manager experts.
