DNG Profile Editor 1.0.0.45 Beta

Focus Magic uses advanced forensic strength deconvolution technology to literally "undo" blur and recover lost detail. Focus Magic can be used to fix out-of-focus blur as well as motion blur (typically known as camera shake).

Unlike other sharpening software, Focus Magic increases the "actual sharpness" (with deconvolution) rather than the "perceived sharpness" (with unsharp mask or equivalent).

Here are some key features of "Focus Magic":

· Focus (sharpen) an image which is Out of Focus Although there are many image editing programs with a “Sharpen” or “Unsharp Mask” feature, none of the one’s we have seen come anywhere close to the re-focusing capabilities of Focus Magic. Unsharp Mask and Sharpen filters simply increase the contrast at the edges of an image. This amplifies the noise or grain in an image, and can only be applied a little before the colors start to look un-natural. Focus Magic uses advanced mathematics to reverse the process by which the image got out of focus. For examples click here.
· Correct an image which has Motion Blur Focus Magic can correct an image which has motion blur by entering the distance and the direction.
· Defocus (soften) an image An image can be defocused by varying amounts.
· Increase the resolution of an image which has too few pixels to print with smooth edges The Increase Resolution filter uses ground breaking technology to get rid of the pixelized look of images which have a low resolution.
· Despeckle an image which has been scanned in The despeckle filter lets you despeckle an image scanned in from a newspaper or magazine by the optimum amount.
