Hi Jean-Pierre,

We did modify a FV300 system for FCS measurement, there is detailed
description about modification with technical drawing in our paper
published on Review of Scientific Instrument, here is the link
(http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.2740053 ).

It should not be very difficult if you also need to do APD imaging,  in
principle, you can bypass one fluorescence channel and connect that in
control box to APD output (maybe signal conversion needed here). The
modified system is not expensive and its performance is pretty good.

Best Regards,
Xiaotao
