Thank you for the input from Gabriel Landini, which is quite productive
for me. I shall scrutinize the ImageJ site for potential compatible cameras
to
ImageJ software. I did not know about the hot pixel problem and will
inquire.
Regarding the QImaging 3.3 MPixel camera, what was the nature of
your problem with the plugin? As cost and budget for the camera are
clearly important, I shall review this matter further with my blood
component
research collaborator in London, UK. We know the exchange rates between
the USA and Canada and can compare prices.
Cheers,
Dr. Putter
