Colour correction question

[Fastmarc]

Apart from colour correcting, what do you all think of 'Smart Sharpening' in PS or other similar sharpeners in other editing program.
Do they work?

Yup, they absolutely do work. Play around with USM and smart sharpen.

Watch for haloes and other telltales that you've gone too far. Pretty much every digital image will need some sharpening - even most cameras that do some in-camera produce images that need it. If you shoot in RAW, you get to make this decision, too!

If you lay hands on a book like Scott Kelby's range there are about 100 different ways to sharpen.

Great, more stuff for me to get lost in.
IS THERE NO END?
Shouldn't there be a warning posted on the front page of this forum?
"Warning: You will get sucked in and loose countless hour doing something you enjoy, but your significant other or business partner won't."

Sharpen you say .

This is one of the best tutorials on proper usage of the sharpening filters in Photoshop, whether they be Smart Sharpen or Unsharp mask......

I highly recommend it, it's about 25 minutes long.

Done that.
I came across it from the first time you gave me that link. I agree... very informative.
Thanks.

I am terrible at getting my images dealt with - still have files from last year that aren't sorted...and still have files from when I was shooting the Oly 5050 that aren't sorted LOL

Now I don't feel so badly.
