Thanks, I will have a look at ImageJ. The problem is not just the stitching together though.
The attractions of QGIS is the following: * Ability to easily browse between content, I can thus have multiple microscope layers. It thus becomes a tool for exploration and measuring. * Existing ecosystem that can be easily extended and possible unintended uses of existing plugins. I need to point counting sometimes to get statistics on the number of minerals in a slide. Doing this on a big screen rather than through a microscope with a small field of view could be much better. I have lots of ideas for this and think it can work really well. I will keep the list informed when I start working on this in earnest.
