Abstract

A method and arrangement for acquiring image data, wherein a pixel area of a specimen to be imaged is illuminated in a plurality of illumination events with illumination light of a respective selected intensity, which intensities are different from one another. Subsequently, detection light emanating from the respective pixel area is acquired for each of the intensities as image data of a subpixel and resulting image data of the pixel area are determined from the number of acquired image data of the subpixels. According to the invention, the illumination events are triggered successively. The image data of all subpixels of the pixel area are acquired before a further pixel area is illuminated.
