Often we want to image (and measure) the location of different color proteins inside cells. XY registration is easy, but it is not so simple in Z.

How to calibrate
This is caused by chromatic aberration. The reflection is at 488 nm and the multiphoton excitation is at 840 nm.
Based on measurements with beads, the focal point from one to the other wavelength shifts by approximately 3 um.

Chromatic aberration a problem in TIRF too

Conclusion
When doing precise colocalization, need to check the offset of different wavelength probes along the optical axis.
When taking single optical section pictures of different probes, need to adjust focal planes appropriately.
