I cant remember what the software is called. It's the basic capture
software that comes with the microscope.
No, not really. It's pretty hard to do, if not impossible. You'll have
to live with it I think, or otherwise, use an EM lol! I work with
spirochaetes, so it's even harder to photograph them!
But seriously, you just have to focus as carefully as you can, and
that's about as good as you're going to get I think.
