Trade Tricks: Sharpening The Right Way Unsharp mask can work magic—if you just don’t overdo it
|
By Mike Stensvold, Photography by Mike Stensvold
|
Sharpening is an important step in the image-editing process. While it
wont make an out-of-focus image (or an image blurred by camera or
subject motion) sharp, sharpening will increase the contrast between
light and dark pixels at edges in the image, which makes the image
appear sharper. Digital imaging provides lots of useful tools, but you
still have to focus accurately and hold the camera steady when shooting.

|
By Lewis Kemper
|
One problem photographers have always faced is the fact that no medium
yet invented can capture the tonal range our eyes can see. Film cant
get close to recording the brightness range of light that the human eye
can perceive. This holds true for digital sensors as well. While some
high-end sensors can record more tonal information than film, they
still cant record all the tonal variations the eye can see.
