Helicon Focus is a program that creates one perfectly focused image from several partially focused images. The program is designed for optic microscope image processing to cope with the shallow depth-of-field problem. Helicon Focus is a tool that will allow you to create and edit images. Heliconfocus can also be used in macrophotography. The program can automatically adjust and resize images to combine the perfectly focused image.


Here are some key features of "Helicon Focus":

· processes an unlimited number of images in the stack;
