Here is a link to a new tool from Topaz Labs called "InFocus".
Topaz has a good reputation for its Photoshop plug-ins, so I thought I would post this here and you can try InFocus for yourself using their free trial offer to see if it lives up to its hype.
As the Topaz web site explains, fixing blurry photos is an extremely difficult computational process. There are so many factors that contribute to the possible causes for a blurry image that no one company has come up with a solution other than merely sharpening edges in the photo and hoping for the best results. From what I've tried of these tools, they haven't been worth the money. A blurry photo has always remained a blurry photo....
With this new plug-in, Topaz claims to be the first company to tackle the difficulties around fixing blurry images. If this plug-in truly works, it could be a lifesaver for an image that was otherwise ruined or heavily compromised due to accidental blur regardless of the source of the blur.
I'm a bit skeptical, so I'll try it for myself to test it out. But if it works, it could be a great tool to have in your photo processing arsenal for when a problem image comes up that you want to rescue.
