Dear Jean-Pierre,

I've do direct experience with an SP5 but we have a functional FCS setup
on an SP2. As far as I know in this respect there is no difference
between the SP2 and the SP5. There is simply an external port on the
confocal head-where you can insert your detector. As far as I know you
can purchase an FCS unit also from Leica. One of the advantages if you
do this, that you can use the APD-s for imaging and their sensitivity is
superior compared to the PMT-s.

Cheers    Gabor
