To what extent can blurriness be fixed?

Mon Nov 29, 2021 9:54 pm

Hi all - I just uploaded this picture. I think the lighting is very strong, as well as the contrast, coloration, etc. Unfortunately, I fear it may be too blurry. To what extent can this be fixed with editing?

Just did a quick edit. It looks less blurry after sharpening and resizing.

Still looks a bit soft, especially the top part of the titles. Unfortunately there's not a lot one can do about soft images, other than resizing or using AI software like Topaz Sharpen AI (which is a hit or miss, and I'm not sure if a.net would even allow AI software to be used on photos).

What camera and lens are you using? Many telephoto zoom lenses (unless if they are high end like the Canon L series) tend to produce soft images at the widest apertures. Maybe you can try stopping the aperture down and bump up the ISO (to compensate for the narrower aperture). It's easier to fix noisy images vs. soft images.

It was taken as a still shot from an iPhone 12 Pro video. Unfortunately I haven't gotten myself into photography enough to justify buying a nice camera.
