Several issues are inherent to adaptive optics (AO) observations, and particular to our concern is the small field of view. It is an important issue for the image registration since there will hardly be any reference star in the field to perform absolute registration. This can be very annoying when the objects are extended, show complex morphologies which are strongly wavelength dependent, as is the case for AGNs. In the IR, the brightness distributions of these objects are very complex, since extinction and scattering strongly affect the continuum, and differences in excitation between different emission lines affect their distribution.
