That's what Wagon Jr. does with shots he loves but are too fuzzy to save. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/photography-tips-to-reduce-fuzziness#post-1271777 Tue, 10 Dec 2013 13:19:51 +0000 Adira 1271777@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mae: haha, that's my plan at the moment! I took almost 100 pictures of Xander to get that ONE good one for his monthly photo! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/photography-tips-to-reduce-fuzziness#post-1271759 Tue, 10 Dec 2013 13:11:59 +0000 Mae 1271759@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Agree with blackbird re: shutter speed. Also though, practice nailing focus. Sometimes with fast moving kids, even with a quick shutter speed, you're just going to miss the focus. It is easier if you increase your aperture because you get more margin of error. But both increasing shutter speed and aperture are going to require more light, which is generally scarce indoors, so I'd recommend either getting a decent flash and/or just lots of practice + taking 1002 shots every time you pull your camera out because you're never going to get EVERY shot in focus with moving objects and more pics = more opportunity for awesomeness :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/photography-tips-to-reduce-fuzziness#post-1271745 Tue, 10 Dec 2013 13:04:31 +0000 Mrs.Someone 1271745@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@locavore_mama: Filter &gt; Sharpen &gt; Unsharp Mask. Good luck! Search for tutorials too if you need help, there are tons out there. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/photography-tips-to-reduce-fuzziness#post-1271714 Tue, 10 Dec 2013 12:55:19 +0000 regberadaisy 1271714@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs.Someone: where is that tool? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/photography-tips-to-reduce-fuzziness#post-1271712 Tue, 10 Dec 2013 12:54:45 +0000 regberadaisy 1271712@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@blackbird: Boo! That's what I'm afraid of. I got another shot that we really like and is crystal clear. But it's not as fun as the fuzzy one. ;) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/photography-tips-to-reduce-fuzziness#post-1271706 Tue, 10 Dec 2013 12:53:28 +0000 Mrs.Someone 1271706@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was taught to use Unsharp Mask instead of sharpening itself (in Photoshop). Use the defaults first and see how it goes. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/photography-tips-to-reduce-fuzziness#post-1271702 Tue, 10 Dec 2013 12:52:21 +0000 blackbird 1271702@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Aside from sharpening the image more (and making it grainier) there is nothing you can do. You can't make an out-of-focus picture more in-focus. </p> <p>not sure what kind of camera you have, but if you have a dslr, the only way you'll get photos of moving objects is to jack your shutter speed way way up and compensate elsewhere on your settings. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/photography-tips-to-reduce-fuzziness#post-1271693 Tue, 10 Dec 2013 12:49:39 +0000 regberadaisy 1271693@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We took holiday pics last night of LO. We got a really great shot that we love. It's of her sitting on the dog but as you can imagine with two moving objects it was hard to get a crystal clear shot. It is fuzzier than I'd like. Even after using the sharpen tool in photoshop it's fuzzier than I'd like. </p> <p>Any other tips to clean up the image? </p> <p>Sorry, I don't have access to the file right now! </p>
