We present a bimodal Magnetic Force Microscopy technique which is capable to reveal the magnetic stray field of a sample as well as the corresponding topography in a single pass scan. Being single pass makes the technique independet from all kinds of instrumental drift and allows to scan with lowest tip sample separation. Therefore it provides high lateral resolution since the tip interacts with low range magnetic stray fields of small magnetic features. The bimodal technique is suitable for vacuum conditions and stable for high Q and soft cantilevers that are necessary for high sensitivity measurements.
