Major‐axis light profile for the disk galaxy NGC 4564, the bulge of the edge‐on lenticular galaxy NGC 3115, and the bulge of the Milky Way. The best‐fitting Sérsic function (and exponential) are shown by the curved lines (and the straight lines). The solid lines show the seeing‐convolved functions; the dashed lines show the unconvolved functions, i.e., the intrinsic profile. (Note: Because the ﹩M_{\mathrm{bh}\,}﹩‐n relation does not require calibrated images, the profiles have not had their photometric zero point determined.)
