At about the 10 minute mark, there will be a quick explanation that will help. I will try to find another video of that too.

But I asked what the differences are. Are you able to provide me, in general, the default/recommended settings for DFS and Sharpening in the Printers and Settings -> Processing section.

Hi Martin,This is a video that Fred made in 2013! He must have forgotten! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AiVoXcB1uzk&list=PL1sunI5vT1aQhc_JOJiLufvAERChdViUU&index=14 (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AiVoXcB1uzk&list=PL1sunI5vT1aQhc_JOJiLufvAERChdViUU&index=14) It explains Deep Focus Sharpening (DFS) and why it's special and different from USM (unsharp mask). Basically DFS is a sharpening Algorithm that does not create halos on edges, unlike USM which all other editors use. I recommend you always use DFS. Terry |
