I don't have time to post my examples but I really just wanted to say that I really think everyone should try this little plugin for photoshop. http://www.focusmagic.​com/ (external link)
I saw some posts on it in the EOS forum this week and wanted to try it myself early this mourning. It's does an awesome job fixing out of focus pictures and just run it on some pictures that look fine and it some how makes them even better ><
I love this program. lol

I've tried this program on a couple problem images and I was far from impressed.

Could you post a before-and-after?

It sounds like a very interesting program, but in my trial I couldn't get it to do much. I'd like to see what it can do to a real-life image - that is, not one of their samples on the web site.


You can take my 100-400 L away when you pry it from my cold, dead fingers.

It the best.

Heres how to use it for web postings.

Use PS or elements to down res your pic to say 1024 pixels wide.
Use FocusMagic "Fix out of focus blur" at a setting of 1, 100%

You can do the side by side, the difference is amazing.

The key to posting web size pics, is the adjust, resize then sharpen with Focus Magic after the resize.
