Photoshop :: Best Way To Sharpen Using Both Lightroom 4 And CS6?

Feb 13, 2013

I have Martin Evening's latest Lightroom 4 and Photoshop CS6 books, but no mention of which methods are better,  or better for which subjects/ conditions.  It seems that Camera Raw and Lightroom are the same, so I'm tempted to just do it all in Lightroom with the Develop module Detail panel, and the adjustment brush for local sharpening. But can I be doing more with Photoshop CS6, or Lightroom and Photoshop together?

Photoshop :: Smart Sharpen

Aug 27, 2006

smart sharpen in CS2. I have a photo that I've tweaked the colors by using the curves dialog. Next I bring up the smart sharpen filter. Before I hit OK, the original photo in the background is altered. It is brighter and the colors are better as well as sharper. Overall it looks much better. I figured this was a preview of sorts but when I hit OK in the smart sharpen the results aren't as good as it was showing. In fact, they are noticeably worse. It is sharpened but the colors and brightness of the photo back to the original.

Photoshop :: *TRUE* Sharpen?

May 24, 2008

I just started experimenting with a way to get Photoshop to do a TRUE sharpen, where it actually pulls the pixels around blurry edges together, rather than just adding contrast to create the *illusion* of sharpness... but I need ideas. I use sharpening a great deal on photos, but if done too heavily, it always adds that fake "sharpened" look to it, around all the edges... Trouble is, some images NEED that sharpness, and I'm wondering why Adobe still hasn't come up with anything that does a *true* sharpen, after all these years.

So, before I dive more deeply into this, I want to save time (since I don't have much) by seeing if anyone has any ideas as to how to do a couple things.

b - 1.
How would you suggest bringing the blurry pixels in selected regions together?

On my test image, I've had some success using Surface Blur (applied multiple times) believe it or not, but the problem is that on actual photos, it has a knack to only "true-sharpen" the hardest edges, and soften the more subtle ones. Here's an example of what I started testing with:

I also tried Posterize, but this won't work on a large image with more than a few colors in it, because it likes to cut things down to just a few colors (and it looks very messy in photos, because of jagged edges).

b - 2.
Umm, okay, I guess there isn't a second thing... I figured out several good ways of selecting edges; now I just need to find a reliable way to pull blurry edges together along those edges.

Photoshop :: Better Way To Resize And Sharpen?

Dec 15, 2005

Someone told me that when you resize you should select Bicubic Shaprer (instead of regular Bicubic) when going down in size and Bicubic Smoother when increasing the size of an image. I tried it but did not notice a big change but that doesn't mean it doesn't do a better job. I also did not dramatically increase or decrease the size.

After I sharpen an image using Smart Sharpen, then click OK, it shows the status bar of the image being sharpened. All seem good. But when the status bar is complete the image defaults back to what it looked like before it was sharpened.

Photoshop :: Sharpen A Picture

Jul 9, 2005

way to take a photo and sharpen the image.

We took a picture of my daughter when she was 2 that is just prescious. However it was taken on a film roll before we got a digital camera. The resolution is bad but my wife wants to use it in a scrapbook.

I have it in jpeg format now and was wondering if Photoshop can take a bad picture and make it cleaner and clearer?

Xara :: Photoshop Art Into Vectors?

Aug 28, 2013

I've entered a contest that requires you create a window wrap for a car (back window, side windows, passenger side windows, etc.) The contest sponsors provided a template, and it's huge - 65 mb, 177.82 x 36.907 inches, 266743 width x 5536 height in pixels. I reduced the template size to make it easier to work with. So of course when I finished the art and returned the template to its original size and looked at it at 100%, my art looked pixelly.

So I decided to try the Bitmap Trace tool in Xara to change the Photoshop art into vectors (I use Photoshop Elements 4, which doesn't have a vector pen). When I used the Bitmap Tracer, it turned the art into this really neat impressionistic-looking style, that I like even better than the original. But although it's better, the art still looks a little fuzzy when I look at it at 100%.

Photoshop :: How To Sharpen Image In Layers

Aug 1, 2012

I have pc that uses xp pro cs5.1 extended....everything on the program works!! in normal editing mode I can do most things including sharpening, selection....recently I started to edit within layers and I can get most things done...but I cannot figure out how to sharpen the image once it is in layers as it is not one of the choices in the drop down menu, the same goes for selection.

If this cannot be done then I will flatten the image and edit normally. My knowlege of layers is basic.

Photoshop :: CC Smart Sharpen Vs LR / ACR Sharpening

Jul 23, 2013

how Photoshop CC's Smart Sharpening differs from Lightroom (and ACR's) sharpening in the Detail panel? Do they approach sharpening differently? Is one more powerful than the other, and if so, in what way? Are there particular circumstances under which you find it worthwhile to use SS rather than stay with LR/ACR?  (I do see that SS allows one to control the effect in highlights and shadows.)
 
I have generally been sticking with LR sharpening, but want to be able to answer these questions intelligently (and be aware of circumstances where I should take the time to open PS and use SS).

Photoshop :: How To Select Shape And Sharpen It

Mar 10, 2012

I am having trouble selecting an image I would like to sharpen and clean up. I used the quick selection tool to select it from the original photo, used the the paint bucket to make the shape black and the drug it over to a new window or canvas. The quick selection tool won't let me 'select' just the image shape in the new canvas, it will only select a square around the shape which includes the transparent background. The shape is blurry/ragged so I want to select the shape and sharpen it.

Photoshop :: Smart Sharpen Tool In CS6 (64 Bit Only)

Aug 24, 2012

The smart sharpen tool in Photoshop CS6 takes up to 2 minutes to apply, during wich time nothing else can be used...is that normal? It was a breeze to use on the same computer with CS5 Every thing else works really well

Edit:
The problem seems to affect the 64 Bit version only, the 32 Bit works fine...my OS is 64 Bit...
 
Edit:
if I change the bit-depth to 8 bit it works ok, the problem is when I open a 12 bit file...
