 Now we're talking again about normal operations.
-In addition to the contrast threshold setting, DMap is controlled by a couple of other "radius" parameters: Estimation Radius and Smoothing Radius.  Roughly speaking, Estimation Radius controls the size of detail that DMap considers when deciding which source image is in focus, and Smoothing Radius controls how quickly DMap will switch from one source image to another.  As a matter of practice, it works well to just set Smoothing Radius equal to half the Estimation Radius.  That's the default setting, so we won't talk further about Smoothing Radius.

 Subjects with simple structure and no fine detail will work best with large radius settings, while subjects with complex structure and lots of fine detail will work best with small settings.
