We consider the form of the interference term image in scanning interference microscopes employing finite sized coherent and incoherent detectors. We show, inter alia, that for the case of incoherent photodetectors the interference term image in scanning confocal and scanning conventional systems behave identically in all respects including optical sectioning.
