25. In a recent paper, [J. Baumgartl and C. Bechinger, Europhys. Lett. EULEEJ 0295-5075 10.1209/epl/i2005-10107-2 71, 487 (2005)], it has been suggested that the conclusion about the attractive effective potential near the wall is an artifact of the way particle positions are measured through microscopes, because, at short distances, identifying particle positions through intensity maxima gives wrong results unless a superposition of intensity from both the particles is taken in account. The claim of this paper is that if the latter is done, then the deduced interaction potential goes back to a DLVO-like, purely repulsive, form.
