Thanks for the link! Too bad there is no 64 bits version for OSX.

Cheers,
Bernard

I downloaded the plugin and I must be missing something, I really do not see much of a change, certainly nothing better than what I can get with Lightroom and PS at the moment, so there is something that I am missing. Are there any good tutorials online on getting the correct settings? I am not bashing the software at all, I would like to see what it can do and I am running the trial before buying it.

Turn sharpening off on your RAW converter
On the converted but unsharpened tif:
if your camera and lens are supported let Focus Fixer choose the aperture
set deblur between .6 and 1.1 start at .9
set threshold at 30

Run these on images with fine details like telephone wires, metallic objects like chrome bumpers and water droplets like on a flower petals been using it for 5 years now so it probably is dated back then most sharpening was unsharp mask not deconvolution perhaps the world has caught up?
