Is it possible to handheld the camera against the okular for using this software? For getting decent results.

The camera should be fixed somehow, with standard fittings or using self made appliance.
I do not think you will be able to get images of decent quality holding the camera.

Anyway, if you get the images somehow, the program will be able to process them.

Best regards,

I get good enough pictures but there is a small difference in degrees in orientation between the pictures.

But I think i will make a device to put it in.

Some inexpensive solutions

I've experimented lining up a camera with a micrscope using an inexpensive copy stand and can get it to work very well. Another inexpensive alternative, if your camera has threads or adapter that can take a filter, is the Scopetronix Digi-T.

In both of these cases there is some effort at getting things lined up. But, it can be done and is a LOT easier than trying to hand hold it.

a cheap adapter

Hi,
there are quite cheap adapters at "fleabay" or elsewhere.
Simply search for the word "F-adapter" in the photo section.
There are different thread sizes..
I am using this part on my microscope (look at the link in my amber thread).
The optics can be centered. Lightweight cameras don't need a separate support.
....and it can be used for bionocular too.

Here is an example:
