* 3d CloseUp Tools

Closeup images using a macro lens or microscope of small objects presents the problem of depth of field and focus. It is impossible to get a small object totally focused even using the narrowest of lens openings to increase depth of field. To create 3d images of tiny things, one needs the hlep of stack focusing software. See below:

This software is available for a free 30 day download. It permits you to focus on the top layer of the object, take a photo. Then take a photo of the next layer and so on. Then you combine all these images in the stack focus program and all layers of the object are in focus. This software also enables you to create a 3d stereo image of the tiny object. See the website above and the tutorial it provides.
