I have to try that some time. It would help a lot. I am just so impatient with new programs.

Thanks Ron. I think I am going to have to give it a shot. From what you've seen is there limit to the number of slices in the stack?

Hi Ted,
I've used a max of four and have some trouble with six - I seem to get some "echo" in parts of the final picture, but that may only be because I don't know how to use the software in those circumstances.

Very nice! If I ever manage to acquire something better than my little point & shoot Pentax, I'll have to give it a go.

I have read about this software (apparently there is an upgrade called combineZP. I downloaded the ...ZM but couldn't figure out how to start. Honestly did not give it enough time.
I purchased a focusing track to avoid having the literally change the focus each cut. I hope this would eliminate the other abberations tjat a focus change entails but may add some of its own.
the demonstration you give is outstanding.
thanks
Nick

I've had a lot of fun with this- 4 seems to be the limit and the progra is very slow. I use a tripod, set the exposure as a constant and then very carefully move from front to back. Small aperture helps, too.
