If they are truely out of fucus there is not much you can do. If they are just a bit soft you can use Photoshops unsharp mask to sharpen them.

You can do a search for unsharp mask here to learn more about it. This is a link to one of the threads that will help with the settings.

If you're going to print them, maybe going to a smaller size will help to hide the blur.

Maybe http://www.focusmagic.com can help? I haven't tried it myself, but their web site looks amazing, and you can try it for free...

HTH,

Tried it.

I told them I was disappointed that the "trial" version only let you do (I think I remember this right) THREE images before expiration. Thats just not enough to even figure out the software!

I think it may have potential, but I was unable to find out for myself.

I have found out that on some soft images repeated unsharp masking can make an acceptable image. Give it a try.

I have started to save some good, but not focused properly, images in case something like focus magic is made to work well.
