Core Features of Our Image Sharpener

Deep Dive: How to Sharpen Specific Areas of a Photo

Often, an entire image is not blurry. You might just need to unblur a face in a group portrait, make text clearer in a scanned document, or enhance the intricate details of a product while keeping the background soft and out of focus.

Our tool features an advanced selective brush tool designed specifically to sharpen specific areas of a photo with pixel-perfect accuracy.

Mastering the Brush Controls

To get the best results when using the brush to increase image clarity in targeted zones, utilize the following settings:

• Brush Size: Adjust the diameter of the tool. Use a larger size for broad areas like a landscape foreground, and a smaller size for fine details like eyelashes or small text.
• Brush Hardness: Controls the softness of the brush edges. A hardness of 0 percent creates a soft, feathered edge that blends the sharpened area naturally into the unsharpened background. A hardness of 100 percent creates a sharp, defined edge.
• Brush Opacity: Determines the strength of the effect per stroke. Lowering the opacity allows you to build up the sharpening effect gradually, giving you maximum control to make pictures clearer without over-processing.
• Brush Shape: Switch between a circular brush for organic subjects and a square brush for architectural or geometric elements.

Pro Tip for Selective Sharpening: Always start with a lower brush opacity and a soft hardness setting. It is much easier to add more sharpening to a specific area by painting over it again than it is to fix an area that has been over-sharpened. Use the eraser tool to instantly restore original pixels if needed.
