Thanks for the link, Bart.
I tried 6 ways of output sharpening now:
- No sharpening like I did before
- No sharpening, but apply the custom filter you mentioned in your linked post
- LR output sharpening for screen, "standard"
- LR output sharpening for screen, "standard" plus the custom filter
- LR output sharpening for screen, "low"
- LR output sharpening for screen, "low" plus the custom filter
I compared the original in LR with the reduced JPegs in PS with all variants mentioned above on screen, with the LR variant zoomed to an almost identical size.
My subjective impression is, that any variant with LR output sharpening enabled looks sharper than the original and to my eye oversharpened.
The only variant acceptable to my eyes was the application of your custom filter to the unsharpened LR export,
which I found indeed an acceptable enhancement.
Your custom filter does a good job, but I still don't like the output sharpening applied by LR.
Cheers and Thanks
