Fig. 2

Galaxy surface brightness distribution as a function of the isophotal equivalent circular radius Rc. The dots are the data after subtraction of the fitted sky value. The solid red lines show the best fit profiles: single Sérsic for NGC 6482 and core-Sérsic for NGC 1132 and ESO 306-017. For the galaxies where the best fit is core-Sérsic, the dashed blue line shows the single Sérsic. Top to bottom: NGC 6482, NGC 1132 and ESO 306-017. The left and right panels are the g and z band, respectively. For ESO 306-017, the gray dots were not included in the fit.
