*************  The key here is that *two images* constitutes a *multiple*
and the term multiple allows for more than two. Your point about the brain
picking up the minute differences is the model whereby processing of a hyper
shot into a higher res ortho shot becomes possible. Not intended to replace
anyone's beloved hobby only augment it, someday.

**********  Fair enough. Sounds like you are not currently *so inclined.*
The tools aren't here yet anyway, they're just possible. : -)
