Various fixes and improvements taken from the latest DeNoise AI release

Give Sharpen AI a spin on your own focus-challenged images! Chances are high you can either completely salvage or simply further improve many of them. If you prefer to paint the mask manually, you can brush it on very easily and invert the results if needed: Sharpen AI knew this was a ship (see bottom left of screen) and made this selection without any further user input. Here is an example of the selective sharpening masking feature at work, first via auto detect masking (red is the area to be sharpened): Here’s the model’s tattoo before and after sharpening. This is a crop of the unretouched face area at 100%: I detect some slight motion blur going on as well. It’s even softer than the example above, yuk. Here’s another, example, a portrait taken with the same camera in 2006 under ambient studio conditions (shown full-frame, reduced size). Sometimes the focus was spot-on, often it wasn’t… So due ot the questionable quality, a lot of these images sat on a hard drive until now, when new Topaz AI technology can bring them up to modern standards. This image was taken in 2006 with a Minolta DiMAGE S404, a 4MP auto-focus wonder. I have the auto-detect sliders for both Mode and Settings turned on, to let Sharpen do the initial work (though feel free to experiment different modes give different results on different images):

This approach allows users to take full advantage of Sharpen AI’s technology by requiring less input to generate great results. Each of those three modes tackles image blur at its root cause, but now users can either let Sharpen AI choose one automatically, or it can be overridden as desired. Topaz also added an “ auto-detect mode” capability which allows Sharpen AI to select the best processing mode for your image: Focus, Stabilize or Sharpen mode. It can detect 20 different types of subjects, including people, cars, planes, and various animals.

#TOPAZ MASK AI USERS UPDATE#

Topaz just released an update to Sharpen AI to include several new features and capabilities, along with important bug fixes, testing library stability and UI changes! One of the new features is the auto-detect masking tool to generate base masks.
