Doug, my English is propbably bad. I didn't say pixel size is necessarily part of the equation: given that you can find CFZ equations that take pixel size into consideration when sensors are involved, I only said that, if needed we know pixel size; the whole point was to say that CFZ should be calculated automatically by code, not entered by the user (maybe you already said that and I missed it). If that equation is better than another one, I can't say and I won't debate about it.
About microns per motor step, we agree. Again, I was only saying that user should be encouraged to measure the focuser travel over the highest possible number of steps, to minimize the inevitable measure error.
