I have considered ImageJ, but i could not see that ImageJ allows full
remote control of the microscopes.
Olympus claims that AnalySIS can control our older Leica DM RXA2 ,
ImagePro does this already.
It is important for us that the XY and Z positions is automatically
stored in each picture together with the current microcope objective.
Also wee need to know that the scaling is correct, as part of the work
will be semi-automatic control of components. We have also considered
Leica DM6000M, but for various reasons we have ended up with Olympus
and Nikon as the two options. Largely due to the more modular design.

Does anyone know which program has the largest active user base?


-R


Image-Pro by a mile. Places like Emory Medical School and Bio, University
of Georgia-Athens, UA-B, etc. have Image Pro by the ton. If you buy a huge
license its actually quite cheap per user.

Before buying any software, I would encourage you to download a copy of
ImageJ and spend some time with it. It is free, multiplatform (runs under
MacOS, OSX, Win98-Vista, linux, even the Zaurus PDA. It is fast, large
number of plugins (that you can also write in Java), a simple to learn
macro language scripting, etc.
There are a number of cameras that have plugins written for ImageJ (one
of
them is the QImaging, plugin is Win only, but there are others).
