Super Focus
Super focus is a new generative AI tool available in Photo AI version 3.3.0 that has the ability to fix blur and extract detail. This tool acts as a alternative solution for those stubborn and more difficult images that cannot be enhanced through Photo AI’s other sharpening models.
System Requirements
Due to the resource-intensive nature of this feature, it is currently not supported on Macs with AMD Radeon graphics cards. It also does not work on MacOS 12 and below.
To begin using Super Focus, use these steps:
- Click on the Super focus button found in the right side panel above the “Add enhancements” button.
- In the Super focus panel, select a Sharpen strength mode and a Preview control size
- Move your mouse over to the main Preview window and click on an area you want to preview
- Select the Render button on the bottom to fully process the entire image
To exit Super Focus without making changes, click on the “X” in the top right corner.
Best practices for Super Focus
- Results best shown on images that are at least 4 megapixels or larger images
- Works best for out of focus and soft images
- For best results, recover faces after super focus, especially on small to medium sized faces as face details are altered by super focus
- For best results, use preserve text after super focus on small to medium sized text as it may be altered by super focus.
In some instances, motion blur may be corrected using Super Focus but the tool is not designed to handle extreme cases. Try exploring the Motion blur Sharpen AI model instead.
