There are many factors affecting the depth estimation for 3D shape recovery using passive optical methods. In this paper, we consider the effects of noise, source illumination and texture reflectance for shape from focus technique. We present a focus measure which shows consistent performance for varying noise levels, source illumination levels and different texture reflectance. The focus measure is based on an optical transfer function implemented in the Fourier domain and its results are compared with four other focus measures. The additive Gaussian noise is considered for noise analysis. Three illumination levels are considered for source illumination and three different textures are studied for reflectance analysis.
