You should also check out the EDF (Extended Depth of Field) tools in Image-Pro Plus and Image-Pro Express (both made by Media Cybernetics, www.mediacy.com).  Contact Media Cybernetics to find a dealer in your area, or download a demo copy of Image-Pro Express from their web site ( http://www.mediacy.com/index.aspx?page=IPEEval).

Although I no longer work for Media Cybernetics, I have worked for them in the past and would be happy to answer any questions you may have about these products.

Dea all,
Does anyone know of software that selects only in focus portions of an image
and discards the out-of-focus parts.  We need to get clear views of a curved
surface (the fly eye) with a 10x objective using reflected light.  Only thin
optical slices are in focus at this mag, but if we could put together the
portions that are in focus over the entire depth of the specimen, we could
rebuild a clean image of the structure.  This wouild be a used in an assay
screening a bizillion flies, so SEM is not really practical.
thanks,
Carl
