Good day Trevor,

I'd recommend to measure the same object with both microscope settings.
The reason is that the optics will have different transfer characteristics.

I am measuring the mean pixel intensity of each cell (ROI) and the distribution of these means I am using to form a box and whisker chart to measure the fluorescence of my peptide within the population of cells. I am new to using Image J but I’m on a fast learning curve and I’m asking if someone can please assist me. Thank you
